Case Management in Tempe, AZ
The phone calls, the forms and the coordination that treatment generates and nobody warns you about. We do those, so that the energy you have goes to getting better instead of to admin.
- Who it is for.
- Patients already in treatment here.
- Cost.
- [CONFIRM: what case management costs, or that it is included with treatment]
- Accepting new patients.
- Yes, alongside therapy or medication.
What we actually do
Being in treatment creates work. Somebody wants records, somebody needs a letter, two providers need to talk to each other and neither has called. When you are already depleted, that work is often the thing that stalls treatment altogether.
With your written permission, we handle it:
- Talking to your other providers so your care is coordinated rather than duplicated
- Requesting and sending records between providers
- Letters and documentation for an employer, a school or a housing application
- Referrals to services we do not provide, including ones outside this practice
- Chasing the follow-up that fell through the cracks
Nothing leaves this practice without your written authorisation. You decide what is shared, with whom, and for what purpose, and you can withdraw that permission at any time.
What it is not
This is not therapy, and it does not replace it. It is not emergency or crisis support, and it is not a substitute for a social worker assigned through a health plan or the state.
It is also not something we do for people who are not our patients. Case management runs alongside treatment here, because coordinating care requires knowing the care.
