WHAT IS A PRIVACY POLICY?
We follow HIPPA guidelines.
As part of the registration process, you will receive a Privacy Policy form to review and sign. The contents of this form is also included in the “Nondisclosure & Confidentiality” section of the site. The policy explains Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) in depth and what we do to keep your information confidential. Our policy also explains the limits to confidentiality such as times your therapist is obligated to share information (e.g. mandated reporting) or, other potentials for confidentiality breaches (e.g. email is intercepted). For example, if you send protected health information (PHI) to your therapist via email it is not guaranteed to be secure (see Electronic Communication Disclosure section of this site for more information).
