The visit will start with the completion of the intake paperwork. Afterwards you will have an 80 minute psychiatric evaluation. You will be asked about what brings you to the clinic as well as about your medical and social history. The session will end with a discussion about treatment options and how you would like to proceed with your treatment.

This is something that is determined during your initial evaluation. This will depend on the severity of symptoms and treatment modalities chosen. A visit every four weeks is the average appointment interval at the beginning of treatment.
