Additional Forms
Authorization Form: If you intend to have me share or discuss your Protected Health Information with other health care providers, agencies, family members, or other people you wish to be involved in your treatment, I will ask you to complete this form at some point.
For Parents: If your son or daughter is receiving psychological services from me, you may have some questions about the treatment process, whether we can exchange information, how I respond to high‐risk behavior or situations, and how to coordinate invoicing and payment of fees. Some of these answers depend on whether your child is a minor (under 18) or an adult. This document should answer most of your questions.
