AUGUST 2022 UPDATE: I am so happy to be back working in person. I am offering both telehealth and in-person sessions at the moment. This hybrid model may have to change as we get into the fall and winter months, but for now, lets just celebrate.

JULY 2021 UPDATE: Unfortunately, the seven day average positivity rate in Adams County has surpassed 3.5% again. This means that I will be offering virtual appointments until it is safe to resume in-person meetings. I am tracking and following the data daily and I am looking forward to when we can meet in-person again, hopefully soon. See below for a fuller explanation of my office policy as it relates to the covid pandemic.

JUNE 2021 UPDATE: As of June 12th, the seven day positivity average in Adams County is 2.4%. The overall state average is also below 3.5%. As such, I will start seeing vaccinated clients in person. Ongoing monitoring is essential, particularly after holidays and during the winter. If the case positivity rate increases beyond 3.5% again, a return to virtual meetings will be implemented.

ARPIL 2020 UPDATE: While I would very much like to see clients in person, my practice is currently functioning in a telepsychology model. These changes have been implemented at the recommendation of not only CDC guidelines, but also my malpractice insurance company and my licensing body. Further, working in a telehealth model helps me avoid having to disclose confidential information about my clients, such as name and phone number, to contact tracers in the event of a positive test.

This means that I am connecting to clients on the phone, or via video. These applications are HIPAA- compliant and may or may not be be covered by insurance providers. I will continue to update during these uncertain times about my office policies. As of now, I expect that my office telehealth will be in effect until the state Covid-19 infection and fatality rates are at a safer level and the risk of spread is decreasing, as outlined by state epidemiologists and public health officials. This means that the state of Colorado is in Stage Green (Protect our Neighbors), the Colorado and county positivity rates per CDPHE and Tri-County Health are below 3.0% (7-day rolling average), and the statewide and metro county R-values are below 1.0.

I appreciate your patience and grace. My office Policy and Procedure changes as conditions fluctuate. You can review it any time. And as always, I am happy to discuss and answer any questions for you.
