About · What to expect
Starting therapy
Many people feel nervous before a first appointment, and that is ok. Here is what the beginning of your journey looks like at each of our clinics.
Starting at Touchstone means a short intake call, paperwork sent ahead, and a first session that starts on your goals; here is how it works for each service.

Your first visit
Three steps to getting started
1
Request a call
Tell us a little about who needs care. It takes two minutes.
2
Talk with our care coordinator
A short intake call covers your goals, schedule and insurance, and we send the paperwork ahead.

Meet your therapist
Your provider already knows what brings you in, so the first session starts on your goals.
