Specialties

Posting a review of my services is your right and is entirely up to you if you wish to write a review. But I gently discourage clients from posting reviews of my practice for the reasons below.

1. The American Psychological Association’s Ethics Codes states that it is unethical to solicit testimonials «from current therapy clients/​patients or other persons who because of their particular circumstances are vulnerable to undue influence.»

Because you may decide to return to therapy with me at a later date. I do not request testimonials from people who have ended therapy with me.

2. Unlike other business owners who may respond to their Yelp reviews, as a licensed mental health counselor, I must provide confidentiality to my clients. This means that I am restricted from responding in any way that acknowledges wither someone has been in my care because that is confidential information.

History

Established in 2005.

3. I hope that if we work together that we can discuss your feelings about our work directly in person. This may not always feel comfortable, but the discussion of positive and negative reactions to our process can be an important part of your therapy. If we are not a good match, I am always happy to help you find another therapist for you.

4. If you still choose to write something about my practice on Yelp, remember that this is a public forum and you may be sharing personally information with a wide range of readers on an insecure site. To preserve your identity and personal information, consider using a pseudonym that is not linked to your regular email address or friend networks.

5. If you believe that I or any licensed mental health professional have done something harmful, consider contacting your state licensing board to make a formal complaint. Be aware that details of your therapy may come up if there is a formal investigation.
