Your First Appointment at The Calli Institute

The decision to take the first step to mental health and wellness is often accompanied by some amount of anxiety or ambivalence. At The Calli Institute, we strive to make this process as easy as possible.

Find dedicated mental health services that match your needs.

You have made the decision to seek support, so what’s next?

Once you start your journey to mental health wellness, you'll connect with an Intake Specialist. Our team will be happy to answer any questions you may have about our services and our clinicians. They will then collect some basic information about your needs and preferences, to help them identify the provider who is the best “fit” for you.

Once you have been scheduled with a provider, we will electronically send you our registration packet and initiate your Client Portal. Before your first appointment, you will be asked to complete a clinical health history through the Client portal.

We Strive to Understand the Whole Person

Every one of our clients is unique, and our therapists honor this individuality by taking the time to get to know and understand you as a whole person. Our team’s goal is to help you feel safe and comfortable, while partnering with you to develop a plan to achieve your goals.

We know that change is hard, but even a small change in any aspect of your life can have a significant impact. Our providers will partner with you and help to guide you through your mental health journey.

What to Expect at Your First Therapy Appointment

During your first one to two sessions, your clinician will focus on getting to know you and helping you understand what happens during therapy, including issues of privacy and the usual course of treatment. Your provider will spend time asking questions about why you chose to seek treatment, your life growing up, past and current relationships, and usual coping patterns.

Learning as much about where you have been will help your provider understand where you are now and how to help you get where you want to be.

Therapy is not about us fixing you. Therapy is about us joining you on your journey toward health and well-being. When you partner with The Calli Institute, you gain a support system. Our mental health professionals are here to support you and teach you how to make the changes in your life that are meaningful to you.

Take some time before your appointment to read answers to frequently asked questions as well as testimonials from other clients. Contact us for more information or to schedule an appointment.

Choose a mental health clinic that operates on strong values.

Wellness is a strengths based model that focuses on personal responsibility and self empowerment. It is the process of gaining awareness and satisfaction from activities that promote fitness, nutrition, positive relationships, stress management, life purpose, and commitment to self care. We believe that health and illness are not mutually exclusive and that one can maintain wellness even in the presence of disease.
