The initial Introduction (60min - 70min)
At the initial consultation visit with a mental health professional at Pacific Gardens Behavioral, which will consists of a comprehensive evaluation of an individual to make one or possible conditional diagnoses. It is essential to understand that a diagnosis in behavioral health evolves over time (i.e., months), as every individual has a unique journey with varying experiences. However, it is important to understand that a mental condition can be chronic and possibly be in a state of fluctuation, and possible exacerbations may arise. If and when it is appropriate, a diagnosis will be specified. However it should be understood that the diagnosis can be subject to change, as additional information is provided by the individual in each additional visit. A behavioral health diagnosis is defined as a collection of behavioral symptoms, patterns and behaviors; however, it is important to understand that a diagnosis does not define a person, and does not effectively describe the intricacies of the human experience.
