Preparing for Your Assessment

There’s no pressure to have all the answers, but it can be helpful to reflect on a few things. Consider making a few notes about:

• Your Symptoms: What does the feeling of being overwhelmed feel like? Are there physical feelings too, like muscle tension, digestive issues, or a racing heart?
• Your Patterns: When did these feelings start? Do they feel constant, or do they come and go? Have you noticed a link to your work, life events, or your menstrual cycle?
• Your Goals: What does feeling less stressed look like for you?

During Your Assessment

Your provider will begin with a compassionate conversation, using guided questions or screening tools to understand the specifics of your experience. We'll explore potential root causes by looking at the connections between your symptoms—like anxiety and fatigue—and your hormonal, digestive, and nervous system health. By the end of the visit, you will collaboratively create an initial Care Plan with clear first steps, whether that’s exploring medication, trying acupuncture, or making targeted lifestyle changes.

After Your Assessment

You’ll leave the visit knowing exactly what comes next. Your provider will schedule a follow-up to check in on how you're feeling and fine-tune your plan. Remember, your Care Team is available via the patient portal if questions come up—our goal is to ensure you feel supported between appointments.
