Privacy Policy
A legal disclaimer
Last Updated: December 16, 2025
​
This Privacy Policy explains how this practice ("I," “we,” “our,” or “the Practice”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use my website. I am committed to maintaining your privacy and complying with all applicable federal and state laws, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
By using this website, you agree to the terms outlined below.
​
1. No Client Data Stored on This Website
This website is used for general informational purposes only. I do not store, collect, or maintain any protected health information (PHI) or personal client data on the website or on Wix servers.
​
If you submit information through a contact form, that information is transmitted securely and delivered directly to my email. I do not use website submissions to maintain medical records.
​
2. HIPAA Compliance
As a mental health provider, I am required by law to protect the privacy and security of your health information.
I follow all HIPAA standards for safeguarding protected health information, including:
-
Secure communication practices
-
Limited access to PHI
-
Confidential record-keeping procedures
-
Compliance with HIPAA’s Privacy Rule, Security Rule, and Breach Notification Rule
Any clinical or treatment-related information will only be collected through HIPAA-compliant systems, not through this website.
​
3. Information You Choose to Submit
If you choose to contact me voluntarily through a form, email link, or phone number provided on this website, you may share:
-
Your name
-
Your email address
-
Your phone number
-
A brief general message
Please avoid sending detailed personal or clinical information through the website contact form. I use the information you provide solely to respond to your inquiry. I do not share, sell, or disclose this information to third parties.
​
4. Cookies & Basic Website Analytics
This website may use standard cookies or analytics tools provided by Wix to improve functionality and understand basic site usage trends. These tools do not identify you personally and do not collect protected health information. You may disable cookies anytime through your browser settings.
​
5. Third-Party Services
This website may contain links to third-party platforms (e.g., telehealth portals, scheduling tools, payment systems). These platforms have their own privacy and security policies. I encourage you to review those policies before submitting any personal or health information. I'm not responsible for the content or privacy practices of third-party websites.
​
6. How We Protect Information
Although no personal or health records are stored on this website, I use technical and administrative safeguards to protect any limited information you may submit voluntarily, including:
-
Encrypted form submissions
-
Secure email systems
-
Restricted access to communication records
7. Your Rights
As a client, you have rights under HIPAA and applicable state laws regarding your protected health information. These rights include access to your records, requesting amendments, and controlling how your information is shared. These rights apply only to information collected through clinical practice — not through this website.
You may contact me at any time to request information about your rights or my privacy practices.
​
8. Changes to This Privacy Policy
I may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date.
​
9. Contact Information
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or my privacy practices, please contact me directly.
