Privacy & Confidentiality
Your privacy is very important to me and is protected by state law and the rules of ethics of our profession.
All patient information is kept confidential and is released only through procedures consistent with the law and professional ethics. The law protects the relationship between a client and a psychotherapist, and information cannot be disclosed without written permission, with a few rare exceptions.
A detailed privacy practices policy will be given to you at the time of your first consultation. If you have any specific questions at any time regarding this notice or my privacy policies, please contact me at 201-784-0312.
Other Policies & Guidelines
Appointments are scheduled in advance and, when possible, I coordinate appointments so they are on the same day, at the same time each week.
Psychotherapy—whether for an individual, a couple, or a group—is a process and, importantly, centers around a relationship between the therapist and client, involving open and honest communication and the development of trust. Our efforts to establish and maintain a regular appointment schedule is an important part of building that trust, so, we will work together to always foster open communications with mutual respect and consideration for each other’s time and values.
