Starting your mental health journey can feel uncertain, especially when you’re not sure what to expect. At Her Haven Mental Wellness, we make the process clear and comfortable from the very first step. Here’s what you can expect during your initial visit, from your introductory call to your personalized care plan, with Angela, our Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner.
Step 1: Your 15-Minute Introductory Call
Your journey begins with a brief, 15-minute phone call. During this conversation, we’ll discuss what’s been going on, what you’re looking for, and make sure Angela, our Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, is the right fit for your needs.
It’s an easy, no-pressure way to learn more about our approach and see if Her Haven feels like the right place for you.

Step 2: Complete Your Paperwork
Before your psychiatric evaluation, we’ll send you a few short forms to complete. This step is essential—it allows us to meet provider requirements and gives Angela important background information before your visit.
Having your paperwork finished ahead of time means your appointment can focus entirely on you and your care.

Step 3: Your Psychiatric Evaluation
Once your paperwork is complete, we’ll schedule your psychiatric evaluation. During this appointment, Angela will take time to get to know you: your medical history, current symptoms, lifestyle, and goals for care.
If appropriate, we may recommend a GeneSight® genetic test to help guide medication decisions. This test analyzes how your genes may affect your body’s response to certain medications, helping us choose options that are more likely to work well for you with fewer side effects.

Step 4: Follow-Up and Ongoing Care
After your evaluation, we’ll schedule your next appointment—typically within two to four weeks, depending on your needs. These follow-up visits help us track your progress, adjust treatment if necessary, and make sure you feel supported every step of the way.
At Her Haven Mental Wellness, we believe in care that’s personalized, compassionate, and rooted in understanding. From your first call to your ongoing visits, our goal is to create a space where you can find balance, clarity, and long-term wellness.
