For Northern Arizona residents who require or prefer in office treatment, we also offer a hybrid model of delivery of services (in person, virtual or a combination of both). For your safety, our safety, and the safety of our community, we are committed to decreasing potential transmission through strict hygiene, cleaning and sanitizing protocols. The spacing of our therapy and waiting rooms promote adequate physical distancing, as do our separate entry and exits. We have installed HEPA filtration in each of our therapy offices and Medical Grade MERV-13 filtration has been added to our HVAC systems. During periods of high prevalance we will not make in person appointments and will direct clients to schedule a Virtual Visit for continuing care.

Clients are required to follow the following procedures to be seen in person. Clients with flu-like symptoms or known exposure  to COVID-19  within the last 14 days must schedule a virtual visit at https://psychotherapy.com/virtualvisits.html
 
Please arrive no more than 5 minutes early for your appointment. We encourage you to leave personal items in your car or at home if possible. Upon entering our office, please use the provided hand sanitizing dispenser immediatly inside our lobby door. Visitors accompanying clients are limited to the guardian/parents of a minor or an interpreter if necessary. Clients, visitors, and staff are required to wear a mask while in our waiting room. If you do not have a mask, a disposable mask will be provided to you.

Temperatures may be checked via remote infrared thermometer, especially during periods of high flu/COVID transmission. If you, or anyone with you, has a temperature above 99.5°F, you will not be seen, and instead will be scheduled for a virtual visit. You may be required to wear a mask during your session with your therapist. Staff will be available to discuss payment issues and schedule your next appointment prior to your session. We have several contactless payment options. Payment via physical cards, checks or cash is strongly discouraged, and we will attempt to bill your card on file during your session. Receipts will only be available via email or text.  At the end of your session, you are encouraged to sanitize your hands before leaving. All clients are required to exit through the designated Exit door.

We appreciate your understanding, and please remember, we are here to support you, and will continue to help create a healthy environment for change.
