Terms & Privacy

1. Privacy & Confidentiality

Your privacy is deeply respected. We collect only the information you provide (e.g., intake form, session notes, recordings, contact info) to support your care. All data is stored securely (encrypted, password-protected) and is never sold or shared, except if legally required (e.g., risk of harm).

We may use third-party services (e.g., scheduling, payment processing, website hosting) to deliver our services; these providers have their own privacy policies governing their use of your data.

No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is fully secure. While we use reasonable efforts to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Clients may request access, correction, or deletion of their personal data at any time.
