On this page you can download intake forms in preparation for your first appointment or use the client portal link to set up an appointment or change an existing appointment. You can also use the portal to securely send and receive messages and files or update your insurance and contact information. Accounts will stay active for 3 months after your last appointment. If you have not seen me in 3 months or more, please contact me by phone or email to reactivate your account. For business or student services, please contact me directly rather than using the portal.
Client Portal
If you are a current client or you contacted me directly to set up your first appointment, you can use the button in the current clients section. You should have received an email with your temporary login information. If we are meeting for the first time, you will need to create an account with this information but then once you do, you will be able to see the appointment that we set and complete the intake documents.
If you are using the portal to set up an appointment for the first time and we have not spoken on the phone or sent emails to schedule it, please use the Request Appointment button and follow the instructions in the New Clients section. After requesting the appointment you will be able to create an account. Once the account is created you can view and manage the appointment and complete the intake documents. You will receive a separate appointment confirmation email from me within 24 hours of requesting the appointment.
Current Clients
Please click on the button below to access the client portal. You can log in using the information that was emailed to you or that you created when you set up the account or select the option to set up a new account if you have not yet done so. You must have received an email invitation with your temporary login information in order to set up an account using this link. Once you set up the account, you can continue to access your account using this button.
Once you are in the system, you can view and change your existing appointments, create a new appointment, update your insurance or contact information, or send and receive messages and files. If you are scheduling or changing an individual therapy, couples counseling, or career counseling appointment, ensure that you set the appointment length for 60 minutes and that the appointment begins on the hour (i.e. at 4:00, 5:00, etc.). If you are scheduling or changing a biofeedback, hypnosis, or coaching session, ensure that you set the appointment length for 30 minutes and that the appointment begins on either the hour (i.e. at 4:00, 5:00, etc.) or half hour (i.e. 4:30, 5:30, etc.).
Please note that the system will not allow you to set or cancel an appointment in less than 24 hours. If you would like an appointment within the next 24 hours or need to cancel an appointment with less than 24 hours' notice, please call me directly at 773-983-1479. Using the client portal to cancel or change an appointment more than 24 hours' in advance will meet the requirements set forth in the Appointment Policy and you will not be charged for cancelling or changing the appointment.
New Clients
If you are setting up an appointment for the first
time, please follow the link below to view my availability and request
an appointment time. Following this you can set up an account and
complete the intake documents and manage the appointment. You will
receive an email confirmation from me within 24 hours finalizing the
appointment.
When you set your first appointment, please select Intake Session from the dropdown menu of available services regardless of what service you are seeking. You can leave a note within the appointment setting indicating what you are looking for. Unless you are specifically setting an appointment for coaching, set the appointment length to 60 minutes. Even if you are requesting biofeedback or hypnosis, the first session will be 50 minutes in order to gather the needed information. If you are seeking an assessment, we will have an initial 50 minute session to determine the appropriate type of assessment and collect background information and then we will set a longer appointment for the assessment itself. Set the appointment time to begin on the hour (i.e. 4:00, 5:00, etc.). If you are specifically setting an appointment for coaching, you can set the session length to 30 minutes and select an appointment time either on the hour (i.e. 4:00, 5:00, etc.) or half-hour (i.e. 4:30, 5:30, etc.). After the appointment is set, you have the option to complete the intake forms online and submit them through the portal.
If you are seeking couples or pre-marital counseling, only one of you needs to set the appointment. You can indicate in the appointment note that you are looking for couples counseling or indicate this on the online intake form. If you are planning on using insurance, the person whose insurance will be used should set the appointment. Once the appointment is confirmed your partner will receive a separate email with login information to set up a separate personal account. Once both of you have accounts set up, I will link them to create a group account so that both of you can view and manage the appointments.
If you run into any problems trying to use the portal or have any questions about how to set the appointment, please call me at 773-983-1479.
If you do not wish to complete the intake documents online, you can download them below, print them, fill them out, and bring them with you to the appointment. You do not need to send them ahead of time other than the Payment Options Form. If you wish to use insurance, you must send this information at least 24 hours prior to the appointment. If you do not send the information and it turns out that I am not part of your insurance plan, you will be charged the full fee for the session.
Within 24 hours of setting the appointment, you will receive an email confirming the appointment and providing additional information to help you prepare. The appointment is not official until you receive this email. If you do not receive the email within 24 hours, please check your spam folder. If it is not there, please call me at 773-983-1479 to confirm the appointment.
Intake Documents
If you do not wish to complete the intake documents online, you can download them below, print them, fill them out, and bring them with you. Please note that all forms will download in one zip file. Newer versions of Windows should open a zip file for you. If you are prompted to find a program to open the file, I recommend IzArc. It is free and ad/spyware free. If you have trouble with the documents, please call me at 773-983-1479 or send me an email at gjh1975@peoplepc.com. Each zip file contains a README text file that contains information for each form.
Therapy Intake Forms: For individual therapy, couples counseling, pre-marital counseling, career counseling, biofeedback, or hypnosis, please download this set of forms. The README file provides more information on the forms and for couples or pre-marital counseling will indicate which forms need to be completed by each of you and which ones can be shared.
Assessment Intake Forms: For neuropsychological assessments, pre-surgical evaluations, and diagnostic assessments, please download this set of forms. The README file provides more information on the forms. If you know ahead of time that you want someone else to receive a copy of the report or to talk to me about the assessment, please complete a separate Release of Information form for each person.
Coaching Intake Forms: For coaching services, please download this set of forms. The README file provides more information on the forms. If you are not sure whether you are looking for coaching or therapy, please fill out the therapy forms and we can always fill out the coaching forms later once we decide exactly what service you need.
