At Pathways FMHS, we acknowledge the bravery it takes to seek assistance from someone you don’t know and the initial apprehension it may cause. Therefore, irrespective of the reason behind your visit to our website, we would like to provide you with an overview of what you can anticipate when beginning your journey with us. 

Upon reaching out to Pathways for assessment, psychotherapy, or general counseling services, an email will be sent to you containing a link to the Pathways Patient Portal. This portal serves as a secure platform for communication and document exchange between you and Pathways in the period preceding your appointment. It is of utmost importance that you diligently fill out the received forms and promptly submit them to Pathways through the portal or via email before your scheduled appointment.

During the initial sessions, you and your therapist will share information to gain clarity on the issues to be addressed. A psycho-diagnostic evaluation may be conducted to further understand your symptoms and aid in diagnosis and treatment planning. Collaboratively, you and your therapist will identify goals and develop specific strategies to achieve them or resolve the problems. Your therapist has a range of therapeutic techniques to choose from, and your feedback plays a crucial role in determining the most effective approach and making any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan throughout your therapy. Our services encompass counseling and assessments for individuals of all ages, including children, adolescents, adults, and families.

When you seek assessment services, upon contacting us, we will arrange an appointment based on the specific type of evaluation you require. Alternatively, we will provide your contact details directly to the relevant clinician, who will subsequently reach out to you to gather further information regarding your request. Pathways offers an extensive range of evaluations, encompassing both court-related (forensic) and non-court-related assessments.
