About this procedure
A psychiatric diagnostic evaluation — the initial 60-minute intake with a psychiatrist or licensed therapist to assess and plan treatment.
What to expect
60 minutes of conversation about your concerns, history, and goals. The clinician documents a working diagnosis and recommends therapy modality, medication, or both. Insurance coverage varies more than medical visits — check with your plan first.
