I also authorize the release of any information pertinent to my case to any insurance company, adjuster, or attorney involved in this case.

Consent for Treatment
and Limits of Liability
Limits of Services and Assumptions of Risks:
Therapy sessions carry both benefits and risks. Therapy sessions can significantly reduce the amount of distress someone is feeling, improve relationships, and/or resolve other specific issues. However, these improvements and any “cures” cannot be guaranteed for any condition due to many variables that affect these therapy sessions, as well as the individual’s ability to utilize skills learned in these sessions. Experiencing uncomfortable feelings and discussing unpleasant situations and/or aspects of your life are considered risks of participating in psychotherapy sessions.
Limits of Confidentiality:
What you discuss during your therapy sessions will remain confidential. No contents of these sessions, whether verbal or written, may be shared with another party without your written consent, or the written consent of your legal guardian. The following is a list of exceptions to this confidentiality policy:
Duty to Warn and Protect
If you disclose a plan or threat to harm yourself, the clinician must attempt to
notify your family/emergency contact, as well as legal authorities. In addition, if
you disclose a plan or threat to harm another person, the clinician is required to
warn the possible victim, as well as the legal authorities.
Abuse of Children and Vulnerable Adults
If you disclose, or it is suspected, that there is abuse or harmful neglect of
children or vulnerable adults (i.e. the elderly, disabled/incompetent), the clinician
must report this information to the appropriate state agency, as well as the legal
authorities.
Prenatal Exposure to Controlled Substances
The clinician is required to report any admitted prenatal exposure to controlled
substances that could be harmful to the mother or unborn child.
Minors/Guardianship
Parents, or legal guardians, of non-emancipated minor clients have the right to
access the client’s records.
Insurance Providers
Insurance companies and other third-party payers are given information that they
request regarding services provided to the clients.
The type of information that may be requested includes: types of services, dates/times of services, diagnosis, treatment plan, description of impairment, progress of therapy, case notes, summaries, etc.
By signing below, I agree to the above assumption of risk and limits of confidentiality and understand their meanings and ramifications.

Collaborative Confidentiality Disclaimer
A collaborative confidentiality agreement exists between the owners of Fresh Perspective Psychotherapy, LLC (Sheena Nicholson), Beacon Barn Therapeutic Farm, LLC (Molly McCartney), and Creative Connections Psychotherapy, LLC (Sarah Long). This agreement permits the owners of each practice to share and discuss confidential client information with each other in order to maximize the benefits of the therapeutic process. Confidential case information will be discussed with each client’s best interest in mind, and also while adhering to HIPPA regulations and the NASW Code of Ethics. This agreement also allows each clinician to have access to all client information of all named practices, in the event that the primary clinician becomes incapacitated for any reason. This collaborative agreement also grants permission to each clinician to receive and/or reply to any crisis calls, or provide crisis services, to clients of all named practices in the event that the client’s primary therapist is unavailable.
I understand that my confidential information will not be discussed with anyone outside of this collaborative agreement, unless another exception to confidentiality has been met (danger to self/others, abuse/neglect, etc). I also understand that I have the right to request that my information not be discussed with anyone named in this agreement, and will discuss reasoning with the clinician.
*Initial here if you prefer your case NOT be discussed with the other clinicians named in this agreement: _______________Date:____________________
By signing below, I agree to the terms of the collaborative confidentiality agreement. I also understand that in the event of a crisis, my call may be returned by one of the above named clinicians if my primary clinician is unavailable:

Court Policy
Due to the confidential nature of the relationship between the therapist and client, it is this practice’s policy not to appear in court for any reason. We feel this breach in confidentiality would limit the expected benefits from therapy and place the client in a more vulnerable state, leading to more guarded behavior during sessions. Your signature below indicates that you have been made aware of this policy, and are in agreement.
Summary Statement Policy
In the case of a request for a written summary statement (in cases of divorces/parenting plans, disability cases, legal reasons, or other medical professionals/treatment facilities) there will be a $50.00 fee charged to the requestor. A release of information, signed by the client or the parent/guardian of clients under the age of 18, is also required.
Cancellation/Payment Policy
Due to limited appointment availability, I understand that I must provide 24 hours notice if I need to cancel or reschedule my appointment. In the event of a late cancellation, or a missed appointment I understand that I will be charged a $75 fee. This fee will be the sole responsibility of the client, and not billed to the insurance. I also understand that I must pay this fee before, or at the time of, my next appointment.
I have read and understand the above policies, and agree to all terms.

Therapy Animal Policy
There are a variety of animals, used for therapeutic purposes, on the premises. These animals are all friendly and handled on a daily basis. However, please keep in mind that some of these animals are still fairly young and in the process of being trained as therapy animals. It is also important to remember to remain calm and non-threatening when interacting with the animals, and approach them in a gentle manner. Please also remember that even the most tame animals are still animals, and can be somewhat unpredictable at times. Therefore, remember to always listen to how the therapist instructs you to interact with any animals that you may encounter. The animals are meant to add to the therapeutic experience in a positive way. Please be respectful of the animals and follow the therapist’s instructions in order to keep it a safe and positive experience for both you and the animals.
I have been made aware of this policy, have discussed any risks involved with interacting with the animals, as well as the behavior that is expected from me towards the animals, and I agree to the terms of the policy.
*Please note that you are also NOT REQUIRED to interact with the animals as part of your therapeutic process.
