M.A. Counseling Psychology 280 Court St. NE, Suite 215, Salem, OR 97301 503.559.2233 or tiaharms@hotmail.com
Regarding Court Requirements It is my policy not to provide clinical evaluations or assessments of the quality of client participation when clients are accessing counseling to fulfill court requirements or for other legal purposes. If documentation is needed for such a situation the client and therapist will work out such details when they are necessary. File Closure Notification If at any point during the course of therapy you decide that you would like to discontinue your work with me, I am happy to conclude our time with a termination session. If we do not have the opportunity to have a closing session, I will automatically close your file after I have not heard from you for 90 days. Returning to counseling after a file closure is simple, and you can feel assured that my door is open to you anytime you would like to return for more sessions. Payment Counseling fees are based on a sliding fee scale and will be determined by your counselor based on various factors. Fees are due at the beginning of each session either by cash, check, credit or debit. Please be aware that I charge clients for missed sessions unless the client gives 24 hours notice to my cell phone. (503) 559.2233. I can be reached at (503) 559.2233 or via email at tiaharms@hotmail.com. On days that I am in the office, I check my messages frequently and I will return your call as soon as possible. If you are experiencing an emergency situation, please call 911, the Crisis Center at (503) 585.4949, or go to the nearest hospital emergency room. If you need to contact the Board of Professional Counselors and Therapists, you can call (503) 378.5499, write to 3218 Pringle Rd. SE, Suite 250, Salem, OR 97302-6312, or visit www.oregon.gov/OBLPCT/. Consent for Treatment With my signature, I acknowledge that I have read and understand this disclosure. I consent to therapy with Tia Harms, according to the terms described here.
