NEW CLIENTS

Once you contact us via email or phone, we will schedule brief phone meeting to discuss your concerns with Dr. Dasari. If our cognitive behavioral treatment seems to be the most effective approach, we schedule a first appointment. For children and teenagers, we will determine who should attend this meeting. 

​

At the first appointment, the purpose is to:

• Better understand the presenting problem and the background.

• Get to know each other. For children, this usually requires playing a brief game together.

• Define your goals

• Discuss a treatment plan of how CBT can accomplish your goals.

​

After the first appointment, you and/or families can decide if our treatment plan is the right fit. If so, we will set up a weekly appointment time and begin treatment.
