The first time you visit us at Elizabethtown Partners, we will take some time to get to know you. You will be given initial paperwork that explains our privacy policy and our professional services, or you can access them through this site. Completing the necessary paperwork ahead of time will save you time on your first visit. We will also ask that you complete demographic information, insurance information, and sign that you understand your Privacy Rights and our Service Agreement and that you consent for therapy services.
After the initial paperwork you will meet with your therapist to complete what is called an intake assessment, also known as a psychosocial assessment. Your therapist will collect information about your concerns and your reason for seeking therapy along with relevant personal history. Once the intake assessment is complete your therapist will provide you with recommendations to include what type of therapy, how often and possibly how long. You and your therapist will agree on recommendations that best fit your lifestyle and needs.
Please schedule your next appointment, if recommended, before leaving the office.
