The Primrose Extended Consultation
More time. More depth. A letter to keep.
Your dedicated 90-minute psychiatric assessment provides essential mental health care — a time to talk, a time to be heard, and a thoughtful and detailed action plan to guide you on a new path, including telehealth burnout support options.
Comprehensive overview
Sometimes you need a little longer for effective mental health care. You want time — to talk, to reflect, and to be heard properly. You also seek something to take away that reconciles and makes sense of it all. The Primrose Extended Consultation offers a 90-minute psychiatric assessment that is thorough, unhurried, and focused entirely on exploring your mental health needs. This session provides a holistic and comprehensive plan, including options for telehealth burnout support.
You may benefit from an extended consultation if:
You seek a thorough psychiatric assessment to obtain a specialist opinion and a detailed management plan for your mental health care. While you prefer your GP to oversee your ongoing care, you would like specialist input and direction. You desire a comprehensive perspective on conditions such as anxiety, depression, burnout, ADHD, or another mental health issue. If you are navigating significant life transitions like perimenopause, postpartum recovery, or a career change, understanding your mental health becomes even more crucial. If you have received a diagnosis that you are uncertain about, seeking clarity through expert guidance is essential, especially with the support of telehealth burnout resources.
Your psychiatrist MAY provide expertise on:
Psychiatric and mental health care history includes mood, anxiety, trauma, and emotional regulation. We also consider neurodiversity, such as ADHD and ASD, when relevant. An evaluation of executive functioning can enhance work and athletic performance. Support for body image is an important aspect of mental health care. Additionally, we assess sleep quality, duration, and patterns. Physical health considerations—such as thyroid function, nutritional status, and hormonal and metabolic health—are reviewed, with GP recommendations provided when clinically appropriate. Lifestyle factors like nutrition, movement, stress, work, relationships, and circumstances are also taken into account. A thorough psychiatric assessment includes a medication review and personalized recommendations. Finally, we offer telehealth burnout support and create a psychiatric formulation with biopsychosocial considerations.
What you will receive after the appointment
✦ A Primrose Clinical Report — for your GP.
A detailed clinical summary covering your psychiatric assessment, formulation, diagnosis where applicable, medication recommendations, and management plan. Everything your GP needs to support your ongoing mental health care.
✦ Your Primrose Clinical Letter — for you.
A thoughtful document written specifically for you, summarising your consultation, what your psychiatrist found, and what they recommend. This letter serves as a valuable resource to read, keep, and refer back to for guidance and direction, especially if you are seeking telehealth burnout support.
