Appointments and Hours

Appointments

All you have to do is call...

People often feel uncomfortable or embarrassed about asking for help. That's why we at The Institute for Family Development will do everything we can to make all of your contacts with us as comfortable as possible.

When you first call, our friendly office staff will try to answer any general questions you might have and set up an appointment with one of our professional staff. If you feel that your situation is an emergency or would like to briefly talk with one of our professional staff prior to the first appointment, please let our office staff know. They will then inform a member of our professional staff who will call you back as soon as possible.

Special note for emergency calls:

If you are NOT currently a patient of The Institute for Family Development and are experiencing an emergency or crisis after hours or when our office is closed, it may best be handled by one of the following options:

1. Contact your primary care physician.
2. Go to the emergency room of any hospital.
3. Contact the emergency hotline of the nearest Mental Health Center.
4. Dial 911 for assistance.
