  • Dear Patient.                                                                      

    At Doppler Psychology Services, we design a program in mental wellness therapy specifically to fit your needs. Your program may involve the use of many different types of evaluations and treatments as well as a variety of procedures to help try and improve your function. As with all forms of medical treatment, there are both benefits and risks involved with mental wellness therapy.

    Since the  response to a specific treatment can vary widely from person to person, it is not always possible to accurately predict your response to a certain therapy intervention or procedure. Doppler Psychology cannot guarantee that your treatment will help the condition which you are seeking rehabilitation for. Treatments may also aggravate previously existing conditions as well as cause additional discomfort.

    Please make sure to discuss with your Therapist what type of treatment he or she is planning based on your history, diagnosis, symptoms and testing results. You may also wish to discuss the potential risks and benefits of a specific treatment. If at any time you become uncomfortable with your treatment, please notify your therapist: whether it is before, during or after your session.

    Confidentiality - The session content and all relevant materials to the client’s treatment will be held confidential unless the client requests in writing to have all or portions of such content released to a specifically named person/persons. Limitations of such client held privilege of confidentiality exist and are itemized below:

     

    1. If a client threatens or attempts to commit suicide or otherwise conducts him/her self in a manner in which there is a substantial risk of incurring serious bodily harm.


    2. If a client threatens grave bodily harm or death to another person.


    3. If the therapist has a reasonable suspicion that a client or other named victim is the perpetrator, observer of, or actual victim of physical, emotional or sexual abuse of children under the age of 18 years.


    4. Suspicions as stated above in the case of an elderly person who may be subjected to these abuses.


    5. Suspected neglect of the parties named in items #3 and # 4.


    6. If a court of law issues a legitimate subpoena for information stated on the subpoena.


    7. If a client is in therapy or being treated by order of a court of law, or if information is obtained for the purpose of rendering an expert’s report to an attorney.


    I acknowledge that my treatment program has been explained by Doppler Psychology Services, and all of my questions have been answered to my satisfaction. I understand the risks associated with a program of Mental Wellness Therapy as outlined to me and I wish to proceed.

  • TELEHEALTH CONSENT FORM 


  • 1. I understand that my health care provider wishes me to engage in a telehealth consultation.


    2. My health care provider explained to me how the video conferencing technology that will be used to affect such a consultation will not be the same as a direct client/health care provider visit due to the fact that I will not be in the same room as my provider.


    3. I understand that a telehealth consultation has potential benefits including easier access to care and the convenience of meeting from a location of my choosing.


    4. I understand there are potential risks to this technology, including interruptions,
    unauthorized access, and technical difficulties. I understand that my health care provider or I can discontinue the telehealth consult/visit if it is felt that the videoconferencing connections are not adequate for the situation.


    5. I have had a direct conversation with my provider, during which I had the opportunity to ask questions in regard to this procedure. My questions have been answered and the risks, benefits and any practical alternatives have been discussed with me in a language in which I understand.
