How It Works

REGISTRATION

Upon contacting our office, you will receive a call from one of our intake counselors. The intake counselor will ask about your reasons for seeking treatment and direct you to our registration paperwork, accessible through www.cnsla.com/enroll. Your intake counselor will then schedule an appointment for you to meet with one of our psychiatrists.

INITIAL ASSESSMENT

During your initial assessment, you will meet with your CNS Psychiatrist. The goals of this detailed Psychiatric Assessment include: 1) to understand and gather information about the problems you are experiencing, 2) to assess for other conditions, and 3) to begin developing your comprehensive treatment plan. If indicated, your psychiatrist may recommend further assessment with other CNS Specialists.

DEVELOPING AN INTEGRATED CARE PLAN

During this phase you and your CNS Psychiatrist will collaborate to develop a treatment plan tailored to best meet your needs. Treatment components may include a range of care; from individual therapy, to full participation in our Comprehensive Clinical Programs.

BUILDING YOUR TREATMENT TEAM

CNS has an array of clinicians with an impressive range of expertise. In addition to psychiatrists, our Specialists include: neuropsychologists, psychotherapists, marriage and family therapists, educational therapists, exercise physiologists, and case coordinators. Guided by your treatment plan, these Specialists work together to provide integrated, multi-disciplinary care.

WORKING TOGETHER

To ensure the highest quality of care, Integrated Treatment Team Meetings are scheduled monthly to guarantee consistent communication among all treatment team members. At CNS, we believe that you are an integral part in your own healing process. We schedule Treatment Team Appointments between you and your team in order to keep you informed and an active part of the treatment approach. Research shows, integrated care is a highly effective approach to providing treatment for psychiatric and co-occurring disorders. Click here for more information.
