A therapist-client relationship is formed only when you have completed the intake process, Mindful Flow Counseling and Yoga, LLC has agreed to provide psychotherapy services to you, and all required consent, privacy, practice, and payment documents have been completed.

Psychotherapy services are separate from general website use. If you become a therapy client, your care will be governed by separate intake documents, informed consent, privacy practices, fee policies, emergency policies, telehealth policies when applicable, and other clinical documents.
