Consultation

Not every solution involves counseling, psychotherapy, or even coaching. Whether it is a child who is experiencing school problems, a teenager in trouble with the justice system, a working-age person who is not functioning to his optimum potential or an elder who appears to be unable to manage her own affairs independently, Steven can help guide them– and you –toward solutions. The purpose of consultation is to get an informed and objective opinion on what steps to take toward reaching a particular goal, or solving a problem.

The Approach– this process typical involves reviewing previous treatment records and interviewing the people involved.  Steven will provide you with:

  • A concise and clearly written summary of the conditions and social dynamics affecting
    the individual(s).

  • Recommendations of what steps should be taken to move toward your goals.

  • The cost of a consultation assessment is based on complexity of the situation. The base rate for the completion of a consultation assessment is $450, which includes a review of previous records, a 50-minute interview, a 2-3 page summary with recommendations, and a 50 minute follow-up appointment to discuss the results of the evaluation. 

  • A concise and clearly written summary of the conditions and social dynamics affecting the individual(s).
