****Please note that due to licensing laws counselors are only permitted to practice within the state(s) and licensure that they hold related to their scope of practice which includes telehealth therapy. If you are not physically present in the state of New Jersey, in which I am licensed, I will not be able to legally counsel you and will have to cancel your session until such time that you return to New Jersey. Service delivery (therapy) is considered conducted in the State in which you are physically present and the laws regarding therapy are based on that location. Laws pertain to the physical place that you are receiving services, have different safety laws and reporting. It is your responsibility to report and confirm your accurate physical location at the start of session in case of need for emergency or crisis services and/or reporting. ****
