The
consumer [YOU] agrees to the following:
1.
All
e-mail correspondence between the Provider [Michele O’Mara,
LLC] and the Consumer [You] will be treated with confidentially.
2.
The
intent of e-mail correspondence is to offer the Consumer the
opportunity to receive guided self-help for issues of concern
by a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is functioning in the
role of coach, educator, and supportive guide (not as a
counselor).
3.
e.Coaching
is solely directed by the Consumer.
Issues to be discussed are presented by the Consumer,
with the Provider responding with text relevant to the issue
presented by Consumer. The
Consumer is responsible for including or withholding
information relevant to the concerns presented.
However, feedback and responses are most effective when
all of the relevant information about the Consumer’s
concerns are presented.
4.
Feedback
provided by the Provider is a to be viewed as a helpful
resource. Any
suggestions, advice, or direction that may be inferred from
responses by Provider are simply tools to be used as the
Consumer deems appropriate much like one would treat
information in a self-help book.
5.
e.Coaching
is unique, new and innovative.
Although the goals of in-person counseling and e.Coaching
are similar, and yet undetermined how effective e.Coaching
will actually be. The
Provider does, however, intend to offer the Consumer with the
most helpful, constructively challenging, and supportive
feedback possible, with the intention of positively impacting
the life and well-being of the Consumer.
6.
Both
parties are free to terminate the e.Coaching relationship at
any time, for any reason.
Unused funds that have not expired will be refunded
accordingly. All
pre-purchased exchanges are good for one year following the
date of purchase. In the almost unheard of event
that the Provider determines it is in the Consumer’s best
interest to cease the e.Coaching relationship, the Provider
agrees to refund prepaid exchanges upon the Consumer's request
to cancel additional exchanges.
7.
All
prices are based on an “EXCHANGE.”
An “Exchange” includes: one consumer e-mail
(Called an “Inquiry”) sent to Provider with a
maximum of 500 words (5 cents a word for each word beyond 500
– charges are automatically assigned for emails containing
over 500 words), and one Provider response (called a “Response”)
with a minimum of 300 words to be included.
The
Consumer
has read and comprehended the above stated agreements.
It is understood by the Consumer that e.Coaching
is not mental health treatment.
Consumer is aware that the Provider is based in
Indianapolis
,
Indiana
and is governed by the law accordingly.
Consumer agrees that e.Coaching is best utilized for
life stressors that do not pose any risk to the Consumer’s
safety or well-being. Specifically,
the Consumer agrees that major mental health concerns such as:
severe anxiety, major depression, substance abuse,
chronic mental illness, or other mental health conditions
which warrant treatment and diagnosis are not best addressed
through e.Coaching. In
the event in-person psychotherapy is needed, it is the
Consumer’s responsibility to seek necessary care.
In the event you are currently in counseling with a
therapist, it is advisable that you discuss your participation
in e.Coaching with him or her.
