SERVICES:



I am pleased to be able to serve you and your family. I provide psychotherapy services for adult individuals and couples. Fees are based on a 45 minute session for individuals, couples or families. Fees are based on the standard and customary reimbursement rates established by insurance providers at a rate of $110-$140 per full session. Sliding scale fees are also offered and are determined prior to the commencement of treatment. You may be billed 100% of your established fee if you do not cancel an appointment at least 24 hours in advance.


Failure to attend two (2) consecutive appointments will result in termination of treatment with no notification, unless there are extenuating circumstances. In addition, frequent cancellations, no-shows, or no face-to-face contact within thirty (30) days may lead to termination of treatment.


FEE FOR SERVICE:

Your fee for each session will be determined by your insurance carrier, depending on your policy benefits. If you are not using insurance your fees are: __________


RECIPIENT RIGHTS – CONSENT TO TREATMENT – CLIENT CONFIDENTIALITY

I consent to mental health treatment. I understand that I will participate in psychotherapy and that I am free to withdraw my consent and discontinue treatment at any time.


Confidentiality of treatment is protected by Federal law and regulations. Violation of the Federal law and regulations is a crime. Suspected violations may be reported to appropriate authorities in accordance with Federal regulations. Communications between a psychotherapist and patient in treatment are privileged and may not be disclosed without your permission, except as required by law. For example, psychotherapists still must report suspected child abuse, and may have to breach confidentiality if you appear to pose an imminent danger to self or others, in order to reduce the likelihood of harm.


Federal law and regulations do not protect any information about suspected child abuse or neglect from being reported under State law to appropriate State or local authorities. Federal law also does not protect information regarding self harm and/or harm to others.


I have read this agreement. I had the opportunity to ask questions which have been answered to my satisfaction. I understand and agree to the conditions specified herein and have been given a copy of this signed agreement.
