Policies
Appointments: Psychotherapy appointments are approximately 50 minutes in length. Assessment appointments vary in length based on the type of evaluation provided. Appointments may be scheduled by calling the office at 704-604-7224. I will personally make my best effort to return your call within 24 hours or the next business day. It is your responsibility to remember your appointment time and to arrive on time.
Cancellations: Please remember that scheduling of an appointment involves the reservation of a time specifically for you. If you must cancel an appointment for any reason, please provide 24 hours notice. Appointments cancelled without at least 24 hours notice will be charged a Missed Appointment/Late Cancellation Fee.
Fees: Payment in full is expected at the time of service. If insurance coverage is established prior to the session, payment of any co-pay, co-insurance or amount subject to a deductible is expected at the time of service.

Confidentiality: The confidentiality of your identity, diagnosis, and records will be strictly upheld. Your confidentiality is protected by state law and by the rules of my profession. The Policies handout that you will read and sign prior to our first session outlines the possible exceptions to confidentiality.
