	If you just want a mental health check-up

HOW WE SERVE:

	We start your treatment with a full diagnostic assessment that looks at all facets of your past and present situation.
	Then if you wish we work together with you to develop an individualized service plan that contains specific treatment goals and objectives
	All future individual and/or group sessions with you are then focused upon helping you attain your goals.
	Treatment can be a short (i.e. three to twelve sessions, etc) or a long (i.e. spanning months or even years, etc.) process, depending upon the nature of your situation and how ready and willing you are to work.
	For many conditions a combination of psychotherapy ("talk therapy") and psychiatric care and medication is most effective.  For people with severe and persistent mental illness, case management can be a vital part of the service mix as well.

  

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

	If you think you could benefit from a diagnostic assessment, all you need to do is call us and request an intake appointment.
	A licensed social worker or counselor, trained at the Master's level, will complete the assessment and discuss the results with you.
	If treatment is indicated and you want treatment at this point in time, subsequent sessions will be scheduled with the therapist, who can also refer you to one of our psychiatrists or case managers, or to a therapy group, or to one of our specialized programs (see Program Descriptions section of web site).
	Treatment is voluntary; [1]  you determine what you want to work on and your current readiness for change.  We provide skilled, experienced clinicians who will guide and assist you along your recovery journey.
	Treatment works!  Please call if we can help.
