If You Are in Crisis
This website, its contact form, and email are not monitored for emergencies and inquiries may not be reviewed for 1–2 business days. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency or crisis, or having thoughts of harming yourself or others, please call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), call 911, or go to your nearest emergency room.
- No Therapist-Client Relationship — visiting this site, reading its content, or submitting an inquiry does not establish a therapist-client relationship. That relationship begins only after a signed intake/consent agreement.
- Not a Substitute for Professional Care — content here is not a substitute for individualized diagnosis or treatment.
- Clinical vs. Non-Clinical Services — individual therapy is licensed clinical care. Leadership coaching, organizational consulting, speaking, and retreats are not psychotherapy and do not create a clinical relationship, regardless of topics discussed.
- Licensure & Service Area — clinical therapy is available only to individuals physically located in Minnesota, Alabama, Florida (telehealth registration), or Georgia, Indiana, and Ohio (Counseling Compact) at the time of service.
- No Guarantee of Outcomes — no specific results are promised for therapy, coaching, organizational engagements, or retreats.
- Educational Content Only — blog posts, keynote descriptions, and workshop topics are general education, not individualized clinical or medical advice.
- Not Legal Advice — support with documentation or workplace situations is not legal counsel; consult a licensed attorney for legal matters.
- Retreats & Group Experiences — retreats are not a substitute for ongoing individual treatment and are not appropriate for those in acute crisis.
