What to Expect
Before Your First Appointment
Before you arrive for your first appointment, we ask that you fill out our registration paperwork online. If you need assistance completing the form or prefer to fill out a paper copy, please talk to our receptionist about coming in early for your first appointment.
Finding Our Building
We are easy to find on the corner of 66 and Swartz Court in Ionia. We sit off the main road and operate out of a privately-owned building with plenty of parking. At the front of our building, you will notice two doors. One is an exit only, and the other leads to our waiting room. Our building is handicap accessible, and we strive to provide a relaxed atmosphere with comfortable furnishings where you can feel welcomed and safe.
When You Arrive
When our friendly receptionist is at the desk, you'll be greeted with a welcome as you enter. If your registration forms are already completed, there's no need to do anything, as your therapist will be expecting you. However, if you prefer to let your therapist know you're here, there's a phone located in the waiting room you can easily use to alert your therapist. Access to the therapy offices and restrooms is beyond a locked door.
If the receptionist is not available to let you into the restroom, you can lightly knock on the door and a therapist will let you in. When it's time for your appointment your therapist will come and get you.
After Your Appointment
When it's time to leave, you may exit through our exit-only door so there's no need to go back out through the waiting room. Between appointments, you can leave messages directly for your therapist or for the receptionist. Both will try to get back to you within one business day. Our receptionist works part-time, so please refer to our receptionist hours for the best times to call.
