13. Disclaimer and Scope of Information

Nothing on this website is intended to diagnose, treat, cure, heal, or prevent any medical or mental health condition. The information provided through this website and related services is for educational and informational purposes only and does not substitute for consultation, diagnosis, treatment, or advice from a licensed healthcare professional.

Although our clinical services are delivered virtually by licensed providers, website content and any non-clinical resources offered are not designed to replace professional psychiatric or mental health care.

You are strongly encouraged to consult a qualified medical or mental health professional regarding your specific conditions or symptoms before making any healthcare decisions. Any decision to use information from our website or services is voluntary and undertaken at your own risk.

You acknowledge that you should never disregard professional medical or mental health advice, discontinue medication, delay treatment, or avoid seeking emergency care based on information obtained from our website or services. The information provided is not intended as a tool for self-diagnosis or self-treatment.

Use of this website, our social media platforms, or participation in any non-clinical activities does not create a provider-patient, therapist-client, or professional relationship.

If you have or suspect you have a mental health disorder, or are experiencing a crisis, please seek immediate assistance from licensed emergency services or healthcare professionals. For urgent mental health support, contact emergency responders or a designated crisis helpline.

Any personal reflections, exercises, or activities you engage in through our services are voluntary and undertaken at your discretion. If you experience distress, pause participation and consult a licensed mental health provider.


14. Professional Social Media Policy and Online Boundaries

The use of social media is subject to professional, ethical, and legal guidelines designed to protect your privacy and the therapeutic relationship. Please read this policy carefully.

1. Nature of Professional Content

  • Educational Purpose Only: Content posted on our professional social media accounts (e.g., Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok) is for educational, informational, and general knowledge purposes only.
  • No Therapist-Client Relationship: Following, commenting, liking, or sending a direct message (DM) does not establish a therapeutic or provider-patient relationship. Such a relationship is only established through a formal intake process and a signed Informed Consent for Treatment document.
  • No Personalized Advice: The information shared is not a substitute for professional medical or mental health diagnosis, treatment, or advice tailored to your individual situation. Please consult a qualified health professional (such as your primary care provider or psychiatrist) for personalized guidance.

2. Professional Boundaries and Privacy (HIPAA)

  • Confidentiality is Paramount: We are legally and ethically required to protect your Protected Health Information (PHI) under HIPAA. To ensure your confidentiality, we maintain strict professional boundaries online:
    • “Friending” and Following: We do not accept “friend” or “follow” requests from current or former clients on any personal or professional social media account. This protects your privacy and prevents dual relationships. If we notice you are following our professional account, we will not engage or follow back.
    • Comments and Engagement: We will not engage with or respond to specific questions about your health, treatment, or clinical case in comments or via direct message (DM).
    • Testimonials: We do not solicit, accept, or post testimonials or reviews from current or former clients.

3. Communication and Emergency Policy

  • DMs Are Not Secure: Direct messages, wall posts, and public comments are not a HIPAA-compliant or secure form of communication. Please do not use them to share confidential or clinical information.
  • Contact for Clinical Issues: All communication regarding scheduling, clinical concerns, medication questions, or billing must be conducted through secure, established channels (e.g., secure client portal, phone, or in-session).
  • No Emergency Services: Social media is not monitored for clinical issues or emergencies.
    • If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please do not message the account. Immediately call 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or 911, or go to the nearest emergency room.

4. Handling Online Reviews

  • No Response Policy: Due to confidentiality regulations, we cannot and will not respond to reviews posted about us or the Practice on any public forum (e.g., Google, Yelp, Healthgrades). Any response, even a simple acknowledgment, could inadvertently reveal PHI by confirming you are a client.
  • Addressing Concerns: If you have concerns about your treatment, please bring them directly to our attention through a private, secure channel (phone or secure portal) so they can be addressed confidentially and professionally.

15. Changes to Terms

The Practice reserves the right to revise these Terms at any time. Updates will be posted on our website. Continued use of the site constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
