Free 15 minute telephone
consultations
for
those in Wichita or the South Central
Kansas area
Call 729-9965
If you live in our area, we would be happy
to discuss with you by phone what is normal for a child your
age, what are warning signs about their emotional future, and
whether there are services your child might benefit
from. It is very
important that you feel comfortable with whoever may work with
your child, and the free consultation gives you the opportunity
to "check us out" without any obligation or cost.
You may find that therapy is more affordable than you thought
and that you and your child can be helped. Even if you
don't think therapy is what you need, we're happy to talk to
parents briefly and help them find resources or learn what is
developmental normal for
children.
How long is free phone consultation?
Usually they last up to 15
minutes, but we are not "clock watchers" and may talk longer if
we have the time available.
What times are free consultations scheduled?
Usually clients just call our
office and leave a message with our secretary and we call
you back that same day whenever we have a break between
clients. However, if you need to schedule a
particular time, let the secretary know what time you are
available and we may be able to accommodate
you.
What should I expect from a free consultation?
A consultation is not
counseling and should not be expected to fully solve a
problem. What you can expect is to share some information
about what you are worried about, to find out whether this is
in issue that is right for therapy or something you may
not really need to keep worrying about, and to find out whether
we have the services that would be a good fit for your
needs. Don't hesitate to ask us anything about our
training, our philosophy, or our personal beliefs that might
affect whether we are the right therapist for you or your
child.
