Thank you for respecting the structure that makes this work possible. Thoughtful agreements help me offer each client my full presence—and help you get the most from your session.
These policies are here to clarify what you can expect from me, and what I ask in return, so that our work together can remain focused, grounded, and effective.
🗓 Scheduling & Session Timing
-
All sessions are by appointment only.
-
New in-person clients must complete a brief intake or connect with me before their first session.
-
Sessions are timed to support integration and to honor the next client’s start time. Late arrivals may result in a shortened session.
🔄 Cancellations & Rescheduling
-
Please provide at least 24 hours’ notice for cancellations or rescheduling.
-
Late cancellations or missed appointments may be charged the full session fee.
-
Emergencies and illness will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
💬 Communication Between Sessions
-
For established acupuncture and herbal clients, brief follow-up questions by text or email are welcome.
-
For deeper questions or clinical guidance, 15-minute mini consults are available and can be scheduled separately.
-
Please do not use Instagram or other social media platforms for clinical communication, as they are not secure or HIPAA-compliant.
🗝 Confidentiality
Client confidentiality is held with the utmost care. I do not disclose personal information shared in sessions, nor do I share identifying details about your treatment or circumstances.
On occasion, I may reference general patterns or themes in my practice (e.g., “I’ve been treating a lot of migraine cases” or “I’ve used this point for grief”), but never in a way that could be linked to an individual client.
The only exception to confidentiality is if I have reason to believe you may be at risk of harming yourself or someone else, or in cases involving suspected abuse, in accordance with mandated reporting laws.
⚖️ Scope of Practice
I do not treat the following conditions and circumstances:
-
Medical emergencies (e.g., heart attack, stroke, fractures)
-
Untreated severe trauma or active psychosis
-
Cancer (though I may support side effects from treatment)
-
High-risk fertility or cardiovascular conditions without prior medical evaluation
When a case falls outside my scope, I will offer appropriate referrals when possible.
🌀 Disclaimers
-
I am not a licensed psychotherapist, MD, or emergency medical provider.
-
Tarot and astrology are offered as tools for insight, reflection, and growth—not as predictive or diagnostic instruments.
-
All sessions are intended to support your well-being, not replace professional medical, psychological, legal, or financial advice.
-
Client privacy is respected and protected in accordance with HIPAA standards. Please note that communication on social media platforms is not HIPAA-compliant.
