Dr. Ferguson's typically has a wait list for new clients, which can be several months out for an initial consultation. If you feel you cannot comfortably wait that long to begin treatment, you may wish to schedule instead with one of the other practitioners in the practice. Dr. Ferguson provides bi-weekly individual supervision of cases and weekly group consultation for these practitioners.
