Getting Started

Call us at 617-468-5048 or request an appointment online. We often respond within 1-2 business days to connect and guide you through our onboarding process. You will have the opportunity to self-schedule an appointment with a clinician of your choosing.

Your First Visit

Initial evaluations are 60 minutes and conducted in-person at our office or via secure telehealth. Your clinician will conduct a comprehensive assessment covering your current concerns, symptoms, personal and family history, past treatments, and goals for care.

Ongoing Treatment

After your evaluation (which can span several sessions), we'll recommend a personalized treatment plan. Ongoing care may include:

  • Medication management for psychiatric medication monitoring and adjustments

  • Combined care where your clinician provides both medication management and therapy
