Simple Steps to Begin Therapy at Ballard Clinic
Using our intricate matching system, we consider factors such as age, areas of concern, personality preferences, (and more!) to ensure the best fit between client and therapist.
Dr. Ballard, our founder, oversees the process of matching clients with therapists to help ensure a strong connection from the very beginning. If we believe we’re not the best fit for your needs, we’ll gladly refer you to a trusted professional in the community.
Matching You
With A Therapist
STep TWO:
Together, we'll find a convenient time for your initial diagnostic assessment session. During this first session, you will meet with your therapist so they can gather more information and discuss a treatment plan. Together, you will likely book follow-up therapy sessions, so please bring your calendars! Clients typically begin with weekly therapy sessions.
The Initial Session
STep Three:
For some clients, therapy can be a short-term process targeting a specific concern. For others, it can be a longer-term process where clients gain insights and ongoing support to continue making forward progress. For younger children, we often incorporate parents into the therapy sessions.
Ongoing Therapy
STep Four:
We want to see all of our clients achieve their therapy goals. When that happens, some clients choose to pause or discontinue therapy. For those clients who wish to return to therapy or check in about new areas of concern that arise, simply reach back out to your therapist or call our team. We are always here for you!
Achieving Your Goals
STep five:
Our therapists collaborate with other members of your child’s support team including teachers, school counselors and social workers, pediatricians, psychiatrists, and other care providers to ensure continuity of care.
