Notice of Privacy Practices
InsightFlow Therapy, LLC
Effective Date: August 1, 2026
This Notice of Privacy Practices ("Notice") describes how InsightFlow Therapy may use and disclose your Protected Health Information ("PHI"), your rights regarding your health information, and our legal responsibilities to protect your privacy.
Please read this Notice carefully. If you have questions, please contact InsightFlow Therapy using the information provided at the end of this document.
Where applicable, InsightFlow Therapy also complies with state laws that provide greater privacy protections than HIPAA. When state law provides greater protection than federal law, the more protective state law will apply.
OUR COMMITMENT TO YOUR PRIVACY
Protecting your privacy is one of my highest professional responsibilities.
As your therapist, I understand the trust you place in me when sharing personal information. InsightFlow Therapy is committed to safeguarding your Protected Health Information ("PHI") in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ("HIPAA"), applicable state privacy laws, and the ethical standards governing the practice of professional counseling.
This Notice applies to all records maintained by InsightFlow Therapy, whether maintained electronically, on paper, or communicated verbally.

ADMINISTRATIVE WORKFORCE MEMBERS
InsightFlow Therapy may utilize authorized workforce members, administrative assistants, volunteers, contractors operating under my direct supervision, and, when appropriate, third-party service providers or business associates to assist with the operation of the practice.
These individuals or organizations may have limited access to Protected Health Information only as necessary to perform authorized administrative responsibilities, including:
-
Scheduling appointments

Billing
-
Insurance verification

Practice administration

Secure technology support

Except where otherwise permitted or required by law, access to Protected Health Information is limited to the minimum information reasonably necessary to perform assigned responsibilities.
HIPAA-COMPLIANT TECHNOLOGY
InsightFlow Therapy utilizes HIPAA-compliant technology to support the delivery, administration, and documentation of behavioral health services.
This may include:
-
Secure electronic health record systems
-
Secure telehealth platforms
-
Secure scheduling and billing systems
-
HIPAA-compliant artificial intelligence-assisted documentation technologies
Artificial intelligence-assisted documentation tools are used solely to support the preparation of clinical documentation. These technologies do not independently diagnose, treat, recommend treatment, or make clinical decisions.
All documentation generated with technological assistance is personally reviewed, edited, and approved by me before becoming part of your clinical record.
TELEHEALTH SERVICES
InsightFlow Therapy primarily provides services through secure HIPAA-compliant telehealth platforms.
Reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards are used to protect electronic communications and your health information.
Although every reasonable effort is made to protect electronic information, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS
InsightFlow Therapy may communicate with you by telephone, voicemail, secure electronic messaging, email, or text message regarding scheduling, billing, appointment reminders, and other administrative matters unless you request otherwise.
While reasonable safeguards are used to protect these communications, electronic communications carry inherent privacy risks. You may request alternative methods of communication at any time.
