In this first episode, I talk about my approach to seeing a new patient for the first time. I go over the importance of empathy and psychological safety in the first interview. I then go into how to do some of the components of a psychiatric history. I go into details on what parts are important and why. Please see my resource page for a full PDF of my notes and also the PDF of the document I give to patients prior to their first appointment with me.
