History
3. I hope that if we work together, we can discuss your feelings about our work directly and in person. This may not always feel comfortable, but the discussion of positive and negative reactions can be an important part of your therapy. If it is a matter of poor fit, I'm always happy to help you find a therapist who is a better match. 4. If you still choose to write something about my practice on Yelp, remember that this is a public forum and you may be sharing personally revealing information with a wide range of readers.. 5. If you believe that I (or any licensed mental health professional) have done something harmful, you can contact the CA Board of Behavioral Sciences and make a formal complaint. This can help protect other consumers of therapy services. Be aware that details of your therapy may come up if there is a formal investigation.

The reasons below outline why it may not be in your best interest. 1. The California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists Ethics Code states that it is unethical for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists to solicit testimonials from clients. Since you may decide to return to therapy with me at a later date, I do not request testimonials from people who have ended therapy with me. 2. Unlike other business owners who may respond to their Yelp reviews, as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I must provide confidentiality to my clients. This means I am restricted from responding in any way that acknowledges whether someone has been in my care. Thus, I do not intend to respond to any reviews.
