Psychological & Psychoeducational Evaluations

Upon request, before the initial appointment, we can have a complimentary 10-15 minute telephone consultation.  This consultation involves no obligation, and it provides you with an opportunity to briefly discuss your situation, address any questions, and identify what next steps may be most helpful for you.  If we agree to work together, I will set up a patient portal through Simple Practice, where you will get an opportunity to review and complete patient forms.

In order to set an initial consultation time, please feel free to leave me a confidential voicemail or text at 813-738-3898.  I try to return calls within 48 hours or the next business day for calls left over the weekend. If you prefer, you can also contact me by email at DrKHittel@newleafpsychservices.com *Please do not include sensitive clinical information, and never use email in an emergency.
