Consent Agreement
Payment
The fee for spiritual direction is $50 per one-hour sessions (paid at the time of the session with Venmo, cash, check, or invoiced to your organization).
Cancellations
I request a minimum of 24-hour notice to cancel an appointment. If you cancel within 24-hours of the session, you will be responsible for paying the agreed upon session fee.
Confidentiality
I will hold the details of our sessions respectfully and in strict confidence except under the following circumstances:
You sign a written release indicating informed consent to such breaking of confidence for a specific purpose related to our work together.
You express serious intent to harm yourself or someone else.
You disclose a situation in which there is reasonable suspicion of current abuse against a minor child, elderly person, or dependent adult.
Supervision
As part of my professional practice and as a trainee in the Still Harbor Spiritual Accompaniment Program, I consult with other spiritual directors through spiritual direction supervision. Your identity will never be revealed during this time. If you have any questions or concerns about this practice, please let me know and I will be happy to talk about it with you.
Mental Health Needs & Supports
It is important to note that I am not a trained mental healthcare provider and do not offer mental health counseling services. At times, we may discern together based on your conversations that other support services would be beneficial to you as a complement to or replacement of our spiritual accompaniment work. I encourage you to disclose if you are receiving mental health services so that I understand the other supports you are receiving.
