The Connecticut ESA Evaluation, Step by Step
No mystery, no shortcuts: exactly what happens between your intake and a Connecticut-licensed clinician's determination — and what happens if criteria are not met.
From Intake to Determination
Each stage exists for one reason: a determination that stands up to scrutiny.
Step 1 — Structured Intake
A validated symptom inventory covering presentation, history, and daily functioning — roughly 10 minutes.
Step 2 — Licensed Review
A Connecticut-licensed clinician evaluates responses against DSM-5-TR-aligned criteria.
Step 3 — Telehealth Consultation
Where clinically indicated, a live video consultation is scheduled — evenings available.
Step 4 — Determination
Documentation is issued within 24–48 hours only when criteria are genuinely met.
