PRIVACY & OFFICE POLICY

Confidentiality and Privacy Policy

By law, the relationship between client and therapist is protected. Information shared is kept confidential and private unless written permission is provided.

There are few exceptions where I am required, legally, to take action without written permission as a mandated reporter. These exceptions will be discussed at our first meeting:
   •   Suspected child abuse, dependent adult, or elder abuse
   •   Client threatens serious bodily harm to an identified person or group of people
   •   Client intends to harm himself or herself.

Cancellation Policy

24-hours cancellation notice required. Otherwise you will be required to pay the full cost of the session.

Therapy Process

If you have never been in therapy before, there may be some uncertainty as to what to expect. Confidential sessions are 50 minutes, with the last 5 minutes usually reserved for payment and scheduling your next appointment. Sessions are geared toward reaching your goals. Sometimes personal goals are not always known at the beginning of therapy, and that is okay. Goals often manifest once therapy begins.
