Initial Paperwork for Child/Adolescent therapy

Therapist-Client Informed Consent and Services Agreement
Introduction: Welcome to Clearwater Associates, LLC. This document contains important information about our
professional services and business policies. Therapy is not easily described in general statements. It varies depending
on the personalities of the therapist and client, and the particular problems you are experiencing.
Before beginning, we will meet for a clinical interview. To assist us in understanding your concerns, we will talk about
your reasons for seeking therapy, your history, and other relevant information. We will review your initial paperwork,
discuss recommendations and answer any questions you may have. Together we will decide how to proceed.
Risks and Benefits: Therapy often leads to better understanding of self, solutions to problems, decreased feelings of
distress, and better relationships. While there are no guarantees of what you will experience, most people benefit from
therapy. However, because therapy often involves discussing challenging aspects of your life, you may at times
experience difficult emotions or discomfort.
Appointment, Cancellations and Fees: All office hours are by appointment. Fees for services are as follows: $160 for
a 45- minute individual session, $175 for a 60 – minute individual session, $185 for a 45-minute family or couple’s
session, $200 for a 60-minute family or couple’s session, and $275 for our 60-minute initial clinical interview. Extended
sessions may be prearranged or provided if determined clinically necessary.
To avoid receiving a late cancellation charge, please provide 24 hour notice. Late cancellations and or missed
appointments are billed at the rate of the appointment missed.
All professional services related to legal proceedings are billed at a rate of $300 per hour. Additional time spent on your
behalf outside of our sessions, such as clinical phone calls or e-mails or texts, preparing letters, evaluating psychological
test data, preparing psychological reports, or conferring with other professionals, will be billed at $45 for 1- 15 mins, $90
for 16- 30 mins, $135 for 31-45 mins, and $175 for 46 – 60mins. Bank charges for returned checks are your
responsibility.
The contract for professional services and payment is with you. If you choose to use your health insurance coverage, we
will provide you a statement that you may submit to your health insurance or other 3rd party payer. For clients with
medicare, we are not medicare providers and there is an additional sheet for you to complete.
Accounting: We use a bookkeeping service, LouAnn Nelson Accounting, and Consulting Services, to handle your account
and payments. Information necessary for this will be provided to them. If you have any questions about your bill, you
may contact LouAnn Nelson at cwbilling@cwpdx.com, or you may speak with us directly.
Contacting Us: We often are not directly available by telephone. When we are unavailable, you may leave a voicemail
message on our phone. Our voicemail is available 24 hours, 7 days a week. We make every effort to return phone calls
within one business day. If we are out of the office and not checking voicemail, we will advise you of this in our outgoing
message. When we are away from our office for an extended period, a professional colleague will be available to you if
needed; in those cases, only the information necessary to provide interim services is made available to the covering
professional.

E-mail and text communications are to be used for scheduling purposes only unless otherwise discussed and agreed
upon.
Confidentiality: Federal HIPAA regulations allow medical and mental health treatment providers, including therapists, to
coordinate care and to share information about mutual clients that may be beneficial for client’s treatment. In most
situations, we will only release information about your treatment to others if you sign a written authorization form.
However, it is important that you be aware that we may disclose information in the following situations:




If we have knowledge that a child, a person with disabilities, or an elder is currently suffering abuse.
If there is a clear and imminent danger of physical harm to yourself or others, or if there is a medical emergency.
If we are ordered to do so by a court of law or if you file a worker’s compensation claim.
We may make disclosures to seek consultation with other mental health professionals. These individuals are
required to maintain the same standard of confidentiality.
Please note: Your signing of this Therapist-Client Informed Consent and Services Agreement gives us permission to
exchange information for coordination of care, consultation, and exchange of initial paperwork between Clearwater
Associates, LLC therapists.
Reminder: The confidentiality of information communicated via cellular telephones, e-mail, internet and fax cannot be
assured.
Emergences: If you are unable to reach us and feel that you are in an emergency situation and cannot wait for our
return call, contact your county crisis line (in Multnomah County the number is 503.988.4888), call 911, or go to the
nearest emergency room.
Legal Proceedings/Court Involvement: Our goal is to support clients to achieve therapy goals, not to address legal
issues that require an adversarial approach. Clients entering into treatment are agreeing not to involve us in legal/court
proceedings or to obtain records of treatment for legal/court proceedings. This prevents the misuse of your therapy
treatment.
If you are involved in or anticipate being involved in a legal or court proceeding, please notify us immediately. It is
important for us to understand how, if at all, your involvement in these proceedings might affect our work together. If
you are required by a court to obtain an evaluation, be aware that therapy is not a substitute for an evaluation. If you
need an evaluation, we will be happy to help you find a provider that offers this service.
Professional Records: We are required by Federal law (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, known as
HIPAA) to protect the privacy of personal information. A copy of the HIPAA notice is available to you on our website. In
the event of death or severe disability, we have made provisions in this practice to safeguard and maintain records, and
the non-impacted therapist will be your contact person for access to records if necessary.
Thank you for carefully reading this document. We are happy to answer any questions that you may have.
