Confidentiality & Privacy Policy
My free 15 minute initial consultation as well as online video sessions are private and HIPPA compliant.
The law protects the relationship between a client and a psychotherapist. Information will not be disclosed without written permission.
Exceptions include:
- Suspected child abuse or dependent adult or elder abuse, for which I am required by law to report immediately.
- If a client is threatening serious harm to others I will notify the police and inform the intended victim.
- If a client intends to harm himself or herself, I will make every effort to enlist their cooperation in ensuring their safety. If they do not cooperate, I will take further measures without their permission that are provided to me by law in order to ensure their safety.
