1. Request an Appointment: Click on 'Request an Appointment' and provide the basic information including your name, email address, and phone number. We will reach out to you through your chosen method of contact to ask a few questions and schedule an initial examination for you or your child. Additionally, we will set up your access to our patient portal, which includes video conferencing features for your 1:1 appointment's. 2. Meet a specialized psychiatric provider: The initial appointment is done through Youth-Link's patient portal and usually lasts about 60 minutes. During this assessment, we discuss your symptoms or concerns, develop a tailored treatment plan, and answer any questions you or your child may have. The treatment plan will include behavioral therapy, medication or both, depending on the assessment and diagnoses. We will then schedule the necessary follow-up appointments. 3. Follow-up appointments and treatment plan: If a follow-up appointment is desired or recommended, it will be with your initial provider and will last approximately 30 minutes. Subsequent appointments will depend on your treatment plan and diagnosis. The purpose of these appointments is to track progress and improvement, optimize your treatment plan, and establish a relationship with your provider.
