During your intake assessment (and throughout your anxiety treatment) we take a collaborative approach, meaning that we want to hear what is working and not working for you. At the end of your intake assessment, your trained and licensed therapist will have a better understanding when it comes to creating your treatment plan.

We understand that every client’s experience is their own experience and with the help of your intake assessment and first few sessions, your therapist will be able to make a professional decision on which interventions can help you.
