What are the steps for making an appointment?

Appointment requests are made through 2 main forms of communication –

Email or phone call

Request via email:

 We take the name, contact number and email address and add you to our system

 We send out the appropriate intake form depending on whether it’s for an adult or under 18 years of age.

 Under 18 appointment request – first appointment is for parents only

 The intake form includes contact details and reasons for requesting an appointment. You can fill out what you are comfortable completing and the rest of it then can be discussed in the initial consultation.

 The completed intake form is then passed on to Dr. Patricia Barber to review.

 You are either placed on a waiting list or offered an almost immediate appointment depending on which therapist they are allocated to.
