Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters. This Privacy Policy explains how information is collected, used, and protected when you visit this website.
Information Collected Through This Website
This website may collect limited personal information when you voluntarily submit it, such as through a contact form or inquiry request. This information may include your name, email address, phone number, and any message you choose to share.
Please do not submit sensitive personal, medical, or clinical information through this website. This website is not intended for emergency communication.
How Information Is Used
Information submitted through this website is used solely to respond to inquiries, provide requested information, or assist with scheduling services. Your information is not sold, rented, or shared with third parties for marketing purposes.
Submitting information through this website does not establish a counselor-client relationship.
HIPAA and Protected Health Information
This website is not designed to collect or store Protected Health Information (PHI) as defined by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
While reasonable steps are taken to protect information submitted through this site, contact forms and standard email communication are not considered HIPAA-secure. For this reason, confidentiality and privacy protections specific to counseling services begin only after formal services are initiated and informed consent is completed.
Once you become a client, information shared within the therapeutic relationship is handled in accordance with applicable privacy laws and professional ethical standards, which are explained in detail during the informed consent process.
Confidentiality Limitations
Information submitted through this website is not part of a clinical record and does not receive the same legal protections as information shared within counseling sessions or through secure client portals.
If you are an existing client, please use designated secure methods for clinical communication rather than website forms or general email.
Website Analytics and Cookies
This website may use standard analytics tools, such as Google Analytics, to understand how visitors interact with the site. These tools may collect non-identifying information such as browser type, pages visited, and time spent on the site.
You may adjust your browser settings to disable cookies if you prefer.
Third-Party Links
This website may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party sites. Visiting linked websites is done at your own discretion.
Data Security
Reasonable administrative and technical measures are used to protect information submitted through this website. However, no electronic communication method can be guaranteed to be fully secure, and absolute confidentiality cannot be assured.
Your Rights
You may request to review, correct, or delete personal information you have submitted through this website by contacting us directly.
Changes to This Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
