Introduction
This agreement constitutes a contract between Therify and the Client. As the client, please read the entire document carefully and raise any questions you may have.
About the Coaching Process vs Therapy
Therify’s Stress Coaching process is a partnership between the Coach and the Client. This space empowers the Client to establish their agenda and goals they want to achieve. The Client will choose which area of stress to focus on. This may include, but is not limited to work, relationships, finances, finding, or pursuing their passion. Progress will depend on the Client’s willingness to commit, collaborate, and if needed, try new and different approaches.
The Client is aware coaching is not psychotherapy or a substitute for therapy. The Client is also aware the Coach will not diagnose them or address any mental, emotional, or medical health challenges. While therapy focuses on healing past traumatic experiences, coaching focuses on their strengths, the “here and now,” the future, to collaboratively generate tools for success, and more.
If or when a Therify Stress Coach believes that the Client can benefit from psychotherapy, the Coach will bring this to attention and make appropriate referrals.
Confidentiality
While the Coach-Client relationship is not considered a legally confidential relationship (like therapist-client, medical and legal professions) and is not protected by any legally recognized privilege, such as the laws of HIPAA, the Coach agrees to not disclose any information pertaining to the Client without their consent.
Therify’s Stress Coach and Client both understand confidentiality is a quintessential element of the coaching process. However, based on Therify’s company policy, necessary action will be taken if (a) there is evidence of imminent or risk of danger to the Client or others, (b) the Therify Stress Coach is informed of abuse on a child, dependent, or adult.While every effort will be made to maintain confidentiality, please be aware that electronic communications (e.g., email, text messages) are not completely secure, and confidentiality cannot be guaranteed. Additionally, if you choose to share information about our sessions with others, such as family members or friends, confidentiality may be compromised.
Cancellation Policy
Should the client need to cancel their session, the client can visit the scheduling site to complete the cancellation. Rescheduling on the same day is not guaranteed.
Acknowledgment and Release of Liability
By accepting this coaching service agreement and informed consent, I acknowledge that I understand the information written above. I agree to waive all liabilities and claims that may arise as a result of my participation in Therify’s Stress Coaching.
