Steven Wong, Ph.D. PLLC

I encourage you to think of our first session as a consultation with no strings attached. I will do my best to understand you and your unique concerns. It is important for you to feel comfortable with your future therapist, and this initial session will give you a sense of what it's like to meet with me. It is also important for your therapist to have the skills and experience necessary to treat your specific concerns. I'm happy to answer any questions that you may have about my training and experience.

 

If it seems like we are a good match at the end of the first session, then we will schedule a regular time to meet where we can continue to assess your strengths, as well as your areas for growth, so that we can collaboratively develop a plan of action. If not, then I'm happy to make a referral to other services or qualified professionals who may be better suited to help you.

​​

The first session will begin by reviewing the agreement for services and the HIPPA Notice found on the right side of this page. Please do not sign the agreement until we have had a chance to discuss it.

 

It is helpful, but not required, for you to complete the "Intake Form" prior to our first session. Please note: if any questions are unclear or that you would rather not answer prior to meeting in person, then please leave them blank and we can discuss them further in session. 

​

For clients only doing telehealth, there are several ways to complete the forms. First, you can fill out a paper copy of each and mail them. Second, you can email me the forms. Third, I now have an online client portal. You can complete the forms and sign them electronically through the portal.
