Scheduling availability: Our after school appointment times are EXTREMELY limited. Please note that we do not have a waitlist for afternoon appointments. Clients that start with a daytime appointment have first priority for moving into afternoon times before offering them to new clients.

I need an after school appointment time, and I understand that may impact my ability to be served. I can make a daytime (9am-3pm) appointment work. I am not sure about my schedule yet, please let me know the options.
If scheduling is a barrier, or you do not want your child to receive a mental health diagnosis, we also offer Parent Coaching. These are caregiver-only sessions to problem solve specific issues and provide individualized parenting tools to implement immediately. This is a short-term parent support program and is NOT a healthcare service therefore is not reimbursable by insurance. Are you interested in Parent Coaching? (See link/more info below).

Yes No Possibly
Parent Coaching packages are pre-paid on our website. Once you purchase a package, we will reach out to you to schedule. Appointments can generally be scheduled within one week. Click here to purchase or learn more.

Policy for In-Person Therapy

I. Information

Given the current threat to your physical safety due to the possible transmission of COVID-19, Telehealth sessions are the safest option to receive therapy.

In choosing to meet in person with your provider, it is important that you are aware of the increased risk of contracting COVID-19 this poses, in addition to implications related to current laws for confidentiality.

II. Risks

Current research indicates that every face-to-face contact increases the risk of contracting and spreading the COVID-19 virus. Meeting indoors with limited airflow for a long period of time (such as a therapeutic hour) presents a high risk of transmitting the virus.

Some options that should decrease the risk are: meeting in a space with increased airflow, therapist and client maintaining at least 6 feet of distance, wearing masks that cover the nose and mouth, vaccination status and meeting outdoors (See Outdoor Therapy Consent form).

III. Confidentiality

Because of the current COVID-19 public health crisis, your name and contact information and dates of services may be required to be disclosed to public health officials for contact tracing thereby potentially disclosing confidential information.

IV. Safety Protocols

Strict safety protocols are in place both to protect you, SPT staff and the community.

I agree to comply with the safety protocols outlined by SPT and I understand that for the safety of myself and for others if I do not comply, in-person services may be revoked. I agree and understand:
- That all parties ages 5+ will be fully masked . (Exceptions include a condition that prevents the use of the mask.)
- Therapists, clients and family members will make reasonable efforts to physcially distance themselves when possible.
- Therapists, clients and family members who test positive for COVID-19 and have had an in-person ssession within 5 days will immediately inform their therapist, and vice versa.
- All therapists are fully vaccinated per Govenor Inslee's mandate for health care workers.
By attending in-person session, you agree that you are answering NO to the following COVID-19 screening questions:
- Are you or anyone in your household experiencing symptoms?
- Have you or anyone in your household been exposed to anyone who has tested positive for, or is believed to have, COVID-19?
I understand that I will not come to in-person session if the answer is “yes" to any of the above questions, and that I will be sent home and asked to reschedule should I answer "yes" to any of the COVID-19 screening questions.

If you (the client, parent guardian, or the child) are not able to adhere to the above safety measures, and/or you and your family members are eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine but have not received it, in-person sessions may not be a safe option for care and your provider will offer you a Telehealth appointment instead.
By providing my signature, I hereby agree that I have read and fully understand the above.
