Special Instructions Regarding COVID-19

I am reopening my home office for counseling & acupuncture beginning Monday, June 22, 2020.

I am committed to protecting the health and safety of my clients while providing the highest quality of care. In accordance with the latest recommendations from the CDC I have modified my protocols and want to inform you of the changes that you'll see--

• I will be providing a safe and clean environment by continuing thorough disinfecting the treatment room and sanitizing all public surfaces.

• I am spreading out appointments to allow ample time to sanitize treatment rooms between patients.

• You must cancel your appointment if you are displaying cold or flu-like symptoms such as cough, fever, sore throat, shortness of breath, or new loss of smell or taste.

• No one may accompany you to your appointment without prior permission.

• You must wear a face mask and sanitize your hands once you enter the office.

• I will be wearing face mask, too.

• I have installed an air purifier in the treatment room to maintain ample air circulation and ventilation. Plus, the treatment room will be aired out after each treatment.
