Refer a Patient
For referring providers. Specialized care for severe to complex anxiety and OCD when a patient needs more than traditional outpatient treatment.
After You Refer
We reply within 1 business day. 1) You submit the referral: the online form or a phone call. 2) We contact the patient: outreach, scheduling, and intake. 3) We keep you updated: after intake, and again when care starts.
When Should I Refer?
Weekly therapy isn't enough? It may be time for a higher level of care. Refer when you see any of these: symptoms are interfering with school, work, relationships, or daily life; anxiety or OCD continues despite outpatient treatment; the patient needs more structure/support than weekly therapy; medication hasn't provided adequate relief; the patient is stepping down from inpatient, residential, or PHP care. Not sure? That's okay. We can help determine fit.
What Can I Refer For?
Patients can be referred directly for any of these services. TAC does not accept referrals for individual therapy alone.
