YOUR FIRST CALL
When you call, please ask for the Admissions Department and you will be connected with someone who can discuss our services and answer your questions. When you first reach out to us, we will gather your initial information, discuss our programs with you and answer your questions.

SCHEDULING THE ADMISSION INTAKE
We will then schedule an admission intake which in most cases will consist of a biopsychosocial assessment with one of our credentialed clinicians. In some cases, we might require a psychiatric evaluation with one of our adult or adolescent psychiatrists. The assessment and paperwork will take 1-2 hours.

YOU’RE READY TO START
Upon completion of the evaluation, we will advise the treatment recommendation and program start date.

YOUR INTAKE APPOINTMENT
The intake appointment will take approximately 1-2 hours. The appointment begins with completing forms and then we proceed with a biopsychosocial assessment which is a series of questions to help us understand your history and what you’re currently experiencing. At the end of the assessment, we will create treatment goals and a schedule.
