Initially, you will complete forms and be screened by a triage counselor. At this time an appointment will be made for additional services. Otherwise, you may be finished at this point. If you return for further evaluation, you will be asked for some personal history and some background information. You will also be asked to provide us with valuable information about your nutritional health and your personal learning style (s).
