FIRST TIME VISITS

I N T A K E   F O R M S   Your therapist will provide you with our intake forms electronically through our online Portal. For your convenience, these documents are in a type-able PDF format that allows for electronic signatures. There’s no need to have a printer or scanner or to fill out anything by hand. And the documents are always maintained within medically encrypted and secure system. Most people find it takes about 10 minutes to read through the materials.

These documents also include a brief questionnaire that gives you the opportunity to reflect upon what might be important for me to understand about you as we begin our work together. This questionnaire may take 30 minutes or more to complete thoroughly. You can provide as little or as much detail as you like. The more information you’re able to share with your therapist, the more quickly they will be oriented in how to best help you.

The intake documents also include some material similar to what may be found on the website about clinic policies, as well as what to expect in psychotherapy, including our training and approach.

Your therapist will be happy to discuss any questions that you might have regarding the forms or the counseling process at our first meeting.
