• Your name, email address, phone number, and other contact details

• Information you provide during your initial intake, therapy sessions or consultation

• Usage data from our website (e.g., IP address, browser type, pages visited)

We strive to collect only the minimum data necessary to conduct our therapy services and help you effectively.

2. How We Use Your Information
We use your personal information for purposes including:

• Providing therapy services tailored to you (parent, family, kids & teens therapy)

• Maintaining our website and improving user experience

• Communicating important updates, news or legal requirements

3. Data Sharing & Third‑Party Access
We will not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any third party for marketing or profit. Your information may only be shared in the following limited circumstances:

• With service providers we partner with (e.g., secure billing or scheduling systems) under strict confidentiality agreements

• When required by law or to protect the safety of you or others (in compliance with confidentiality regulations and therapeutic ethics)

4. Data Retention
We retain your personal and therapy‑related information for as long as needed to provide our services and meet legal or ethical obligations. Afterward, your data is securely archived or destroyed in accordance with best practices.

5. Security & Confidentiality
We employ industry‑standard safeguards to protect your information, including secure data transmission and restricted access. However, no method of online transmission or storage is completely foolproof, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
