Your First Appointment
All new patients start care with a thorough initial evaluation.
Whether you are coping with significant challenges and need help, or simply in need of a new clinician. because of a change in your previous care provider, I welcome working with and supporting you in achieving your life goals. We will discuss what worries and bothers you as well as all of your symptoms, your life, health history, and motivation for seeking care. Because it is key to your improvement, so you can do the things you need and want to do in life, we will put that all together to determine the root cause of your concerns as well as my recommendations for your treatment. Integrative treatment options may include, when appropriate; prescription medication, beneficial supplements*, alternative treatments, and or lifestyle changes that may promote your optimal wellness. TO SCHEDULE YOUR INITIAL EVALUATION, CLICK ON THE LINK TO SIGN UP FOR CAMELLA'S PATIENT PORTAL AT THE TOP OF THIS WEBPAGE OR BELOW. *Please note that I do not sell medications, supplements, resources, supplies, or equipment and do not receive any financial renumeration from entities that do sell the things I recommend. The care I provide is scientifically evidence based according to up to date standard treatment guidelines.

Treatment Management
Your First Appointment
Your First Appointment
After your first visit, we will meet regularly to monitor the progress of your treatment plan. While our first visit is lengthy so that we can get your care started on the right path, your subsequent visits do not have to be. Typically we will only need to meet for a short time, but if you have concerns that may warrant a longer visit, we will have greater flexibility to do that if you need because I do not double book. Your time is for you.
Initially, we will meet every 2-4 weeks. As your symptoms become under better control, we will not need to meet as often.
Over time we will continue to refine your treatment until your symptoms have been reduced to a level that does not cause you distress and bother so that you can do the things you need and want to do in life.
You are an individual and your treatment plan will be customized specifically for you.
To compliment your care, all of my patients have access to my patient portal. There you can communicate with me via HIPAA secure messaging, request refills, complete forms and assessment questionnaires, upload documents, and more. You can even self-reschedule appointments if you need to change the time we scheduled together at the end of your previous visit.
Therapy
Your First Appointment
Therapy
At your regular treatment management appointments, your care will be delivered in a psychotherapeutic manner. Therapy is typically woven in with your other treatment when appropriate.
Because treatment management appointments are rarely needed weekly, this therapy is considered supplemental.
All patients, should engage in regular therapy. Ideally this is weekly in the beginning until improvement is underway and then tapers down, so is less frequent. Eventually one may just check in as needed or stop therapy if they are no longer in need of it. And some therapy modalities are time limited, ending when the specified treatment is complete (e.g.TMS). Therapy is truly the foundation of mental health care. So, make sure you arrange for therapy for yourself.
I do work with a limited number of patients for therapy. Therapy sessions are coordinated with Treatment Management appointments. And I am able to work with people for therapy only, also on a limited basis.
Womankind have a number of clinicians that provide therapy as well. And I highly recommend each and every one.
If you are interested in working with me or another Womankind clinician for therapy, please complete the Womankind care inquiry form linked at the top of the page and specify therapy, or therapy and medication. Include who has referred you to us and if you'd like to request a specific clinician where indicated.
