At North Valley Psychiatry, we understand that taking the first step toward seeking mental health care can be both important and daunting. We prefer that your first appointment is conducted in person, face-to-face, as this allows us to establish a strong therapeutic connection and thoroughly understand your needs. This initial session is dedicated to getting to know you better and focusing on the primary concerns that brought you in. It’s a time for us to listen to your story, discuss your symptoms, and explore how they are impacting your daily life.
During this appointment, we will engage in an open and honest discussion about your mental health, working together to identify the main issues and their effects on your overall well-being. This dialogue is crucial in helping us formulate a tailored treatment plan that suits your individual needs and preferences. Depending on your condition and comfort level, we may also ask you to complete some screening questionnaires to gain a more comprehensive understanding of your symptoms.
As we move forward, follow-up appointments can be conducted via telemedicine if that aligns with your treatment plan and preferences, offering you the flexibility and convenience to continue your care from the comfort of your home. However, please note that for certain conditions and specific medication monitoring, we may require an in-person appointment at least once every three months to ensure that your treatment is progressing. Our goal is to provide personalized, compassionate care supporting your journey toward better mental health.
