 What Happens after a referral is Submitted?

• The student's parent/guardian will be contacted via email to schedule a 10-15 minute consultation via phone call or in person at the school. The following will be discussed during the consultation: reason for referral, appropriateness of services, and the intake process. 

• An intake appointment may then be scheduled to open a student for mental health services. 

• Referrals are prioritized by severity of needs. If you submit a referral and have questions about referral status, please email me or contact my office phone at 864-355-4042. 

 What is the intake process like?

• A parent or guardian must attend an initial intake appointment and sign necessary consents before their student can begin therapy services.

• The appointment will take place at Lake Forest Elementary.

• Prepare for the appointment to last 60 to 90 minutes.

• If your student has Medicaid, please bring a copy of their Medicaid card. 

• If your student does not have Medicaid, the services can be provided at no cost.
