What to expect.

Step 1: Free Consultation
Alliance Counseling of Arkansas, LLC offers a free consultation with the therapist to discuss your counseling needs, expectations of counseling roles, pricing, and complete intake forms.

Step 2: Intake Assessment
Assessments and diagnostics are necessary components of mental health counseling. Your Mental Health Evaluation appointment will be the first “official” appointment. We will discuss your Bio-Psycho-Social History, assess presenting problems, explore preferences for treatment, and prepare for building your Treatment Plan.
If seeking Group Therapy only, an Intake Assessment and Treatment Plan appointments are not required.

Step 3: Treatment Plan
After you have completed your intake assessment, you will need to schedule a treatment planning session. The Treatment Plan is the “road map” for which we will use to guide your treatment. Here we will focus on which problems/challenges you want to change/improve/reduce, set specific goals, and create personalize objectives as the steps needed for completing your treatment goals. We will also discuss which types of interventions will be offered or needed.
