CARE ROADMAP
Care Map
Our structured, collaborative approach guides patients from their first consultation to long-term wellness, with clear phases and consistent, high-quality care.
Together, we create a roadmap that makes sense for your life and long-term health
step 1
Every new client begins with a complimentary 15-minute consultation call to ensure that our approach is the right fit. This brief conversation allows us to learn about your goals and clarify what you’re hoping to achieve before scheduling your first session.
The intake process typically includes an intake (60–90 minutes each), during which we gather comprehensive psychiatric, medical, and social history, review current symptoms, and explore lifestyle factors that may affect mental health. We collaborate with other members of your care team, such as therapists, dietitians, neurologists, or sleep specialists, when appropriate.
We establish clear goals of care terand formulate a personalized treatment plan that may include medication, TMS, lifestyle recommendations, or referrals to additional supportive providers. The goal of this phase is clarity and alignment in the treatment plan.
step 2
Once your plan is established, we begin implementing it collaboratively. This is the most active phase of care—where we initiate changes, troubleshoot barriers, and refine the plan as needed.
Because early treatment is often the most dynamic period, we typically meet every 2–4 weeks to monitor progress, adjust medications or TMS protocols, and ensure that any side effects or challenges are addressed quickly.
Communication with your therapist or other care providers continues throughout this stage to maintain coordinated, integrated treatment. Phase two can take 6-12 months on average. The goal of Phase 2 is to actively implement your treatment plan while closely monitoring and adjusting it to ensure steady, meaningful progress.
step 3
Once stability is achieved, we transition into the maintenance phase, which focuses on sustaining gains and preventing relapse. During this phase, we meet every 6, 8, or 12 weeks, depending on your needs and comfort level.
Ongoing care may include:
- Continued medication management and plan adjustments as needed
- Maintenance TMS sessions at recommended intervals to support lasting mood stability
- Wellness check-ins focused on sleep, nutrition, and lifestyle balance
- Continued collaboration with your therapist or other providers to support whole-person wellness
Our goal in this phase is to help you maintain your progress, strengthen resilience, and stay well long term.
