Terms & Conditions

Email & Text Are Not HIPAA-Secure
Email and text are for contact and scheduling only. They are not HIPAA-compliant. Please do not include Protected Health Information (PHI) or sensitive details. If you prefer a HIPAA-secure option, call me and I will arrange a secure communication method or portal.

Contact Forms
While I take reasonable measures to protect this website, the contact form is not a HIPAA-secure transmission. Do not submit PHI through the form. Submitting a message does not create a therapist–client relationship.

Telehealth Platform
Clinical services are provided only through a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform once you are an established client with signed informed consent.

Emergencies
This website and email are not monitored for emergencies. If you are in crisis or immediate danger, call 988 or 911, or go to the nearest emergency department.

Content is for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional advice, diagnosis, or treatment. External links are provided as a convenience and are not endorsements; I am not responsible for the content or privacy practices of third-party sites.

Scheduling, Fees, and Insurance
Policies regarding appointments, fees, late cancellations, and insurance are outlined in the informed consent documents provided to established clients and may change without notice on the website.

Privacy & Data
Basic, non-clinical information you submit (e.g., name, email, phone) may be used to respond to inquiries and schedule services. I do not sell personal information. Site analytics or cookies may be used to improve functionality; you can adjust your browser settings to limit cookies.
