Understanding Your Needs
It can be good to have an initial meeting to see if we are the right "click" for you or your child, to build trust and rapport and chat about any questions or concerns you might have. We will always discuss the options that are available at the intake interview or before we proceed with assessment, to help you make the best decision for you.
PsycheLife caters the assessment process to your needs. Some types of client presentations require a full assessment types to ensure due diligence when making a clinical decision about a diagnosis. Sometimes, however, we can choose a different strategy to help you get the answer you needs without the same cost. You can then decide, with all the information you need, if you'd like to go ahead with the assessment process. We space the appointments out to fit your budget, like once a fortnight or month. You can remove consent at any time. Information is gathered from different sources and using a range of methods and different informants.
