History3. 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 to our process can be an important part of your therapy. If it is simply 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. To preserve your privacy, consider using a pseudonym that is not linked to your regular email address or friend networks. 5. If you believe that I (or any licensed mental health professional) has done something harmful, you can contact your state licensing board 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.SpecialtiesI am a psychotherapist and mindfulness teacher. Posting a review of my services is your right and it is entirely up to you to decide whether you wish to write a review. But I gently discourage people I work with in my therapy practice from posting reviews of my practice for the reasons below. If you would like to see reviews from my colleagues or class participants, please see my website. 1. It is unethical for me to solicit testimonials from my 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 counselor, I must provide confidentiality to my clients. This means I am restricted from responding in any way that acknowledges whether someone has been my client. Thus, I do not intend to respond to any reviews.
