OPEN ACCESS IS A FIRST COME FIRST SERVED PROGRAM

IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER – Please read through to the bottom of the page.

  • Bring your driver’s license, insurance cards, and any custody documentation if the identified client is a minor or if you are the power of attorney/ legal guardian to someone over the age of 18.
  • Once your Open Access visit is complete you will be scheduled at an agreeable date, time, and location for ongoing therapy appointments (For All Seasons offers seven offices and a telehealth option.)
  • Open Access is a first-come first-serve program, Due to the limited amount of mental health assessment slots available per day, we recommend arriving as close as possible to the start time of Open Access at each location. (The intake can be approximately 25 minutes and the mental health assessment can be up to 1 hour long.)
  • If you require financial assistance, please call our billing department at (410) 822-1018 x404 for more information regarding the documentation you will need to bring.
  • If we reach capacity for the number of slots on the day you visit, we encourage you to come back at your convenience on another day. Our staff will be available to answer any questions.
  • If you are seeking psychiatric services, a therapist will be able to complete a referral to our psychiatry department after you complete the initial mental health assessment.
  • If you’re planning to enroll multiple children for individual services, you may need to bring your children in through Open Access on different days. A parent or guardian will need to be present with the child during their intake, and other children may not be left alone in the lobby.
