Terms & Conditions & Informed Consent

1. Nature of Services
I provide individual counseling services on a self-pay basis. Counseling is a collaborative process intended to support emotional wellbeing, psychological growth, self-awareness, and personal development. Services may include talk therapy, somatic awareness practices, mindfulness-based interventions, psychoeducation, and integration support related to altered-state experiences. Counseling does not guarantee specific outcomes.

2. Self-Pay Structure
Services are private pay only. Payment is due at the time of service. I do not bill insurance. Clients are responsible for submitting receipts for out-of-network reimbursement if desired. A card may be kept on file for late cancellations or missed sessions according to the cancellation policy.

3. Confidentiality & Privacy Practices
Your privacy is legally and ethically protected within the limits of the law. Confidential information will not be disclosed without written permission except in cases of risk of serious harm, suspected abuse or neglect, court order or subpoena, or professional consultation. Email and text are not fully secure and are used for scheduling only. Telehealth services are conducted through a HIPAA-compliant platform.

4. Risks & Benefits of Counseling
Potential benefits include increased self-awareness, emotional regulation, clarity, alignment, and integration of meaningful experiences. Potential risks include temporary emotional discomfort or changes in relationships. Clients may discontinue services at any time.

5. Scope of Practice Regarding Plant Medicine
I do not provide, supply, recommend, prescribe, or administer illegal substances. Discussions are limited to psychoeducation, harm reduction, and integration support. Clients are solely responsible for their personal decisions regarding substance use.

6. Medical Disclaimer
I am not acting as a medical provider unless otherwise stated in writing. Counseling services do not replace medical advice or psychiatric care.
