Practice Availability Notice: I operate as a solo provider and personally manage all aspects of my practice, including scheduling, phone calls, and evaluations. As a result, response times for returning calls or messages may be delayed, and there may be a wait time for evaluation services. I appreciate your patience and understanding, and I will respond as soon as I am able.
PPS operates by appointment only. Please call (253) 434-3825 and leave a message, or email Dr. Fergusson-Prudent at ferlicia@prudentpsychservices.com to schedule an appointment or consultation. Please note that due to high volume of inquiries, responses to phone calls may be delayed. If you would like to be placed on the waitlist, please leave a voicemail with your name, email address, and reason for the evaluation.
PPS does not provide crisis services. If you are experiencing an emergency, please call 911 or go to the nearest Emergency Room.
