Privacy Policy

Confidentiality

For therapy to be effective, it is important to know that the information you disclose to me will be treated respectfully and confidentially. All information you disclose to me in your session is confidential, subject to certain limitations prescribed by the law and applicable ethical codes. For example, the law may require disclosure to a third party when there is a reasonable suspicion of child or elder abuse, or a danger that you may hurt yourself or another person. Disclosure may be required pursuant to certain legal proceedings.

Please feel free to ask me if you have any questions regarding the confidentiality of your sessions.

NOTE: Disclosure may also be required by your health insurance carrier (if any), and the confidentiality of any information provided to your carrier cannot be guaranteed.
