We believe in tailoring our services to meet your individual needs. The initial assessment appointments are designed to help us better understand your unique situation and decide on the best course of action towards your care. For child appointments, the clinician may meet with the child/adolescent and family either together or separately, ensuring a personalized approach.
The initial assessment typically lasts an hour.
The initial meeting is a comprehensive assessment process. It involves asking questions about various aspects such as development, school progress (for children and adolescents), general health, and relevant family history. The aim is to understand the reasons which led you to attend the clinic. Additional questions about medications, feelings, and behaviour might be asked if required, ensuring a thorough understanding of your needs.
