Step 2 — Administrative Review

 

Once your request is received, our administrative scheduler will:

 

  • Review your submission and determine whether additional information is needed

  • Confirm the appropriate service type

  • Appointment date and time

  • Meeting link and access information

  • Preparation instructions

  • Any additional information or documents needed before your session

 

Appointments are not finalized until administrative review is complete and applicable payment has been received.

​

Before your scheduled session:

​

  • Gather relevant documents, reports, photos, videos, messages, or other materials.

  • Compile important dates, names, locations, and timelines.

    • Requests made with less than 24 hours' notice may be approved only in documented emergency circumstances and are subject to review and approval by McLion's Research Group.

​​​

Session Recording & Confidentiality

  • All sessions are audio and/or video recorded for documentation accuracy, quality assurance, continuity of services, training, risk management, and to ensure the accuracy of recommendations and session records.
