Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how The Psychotherapy Space collects, uses, and protects information when you visit thepsychotherapyspace.com.

Last updated: September 2026.

Your health information is covered separately

This policy applies to our public website only. Protected health information you share as a client, including anything discussed in sessions or submitted through the secure client portal, is governed by our separate Notice of Privacy Practices and by federal (HIPAA) and California law, not by this website policy. Please do not include clinical or sensitive health details in the website contact form.

Information we collect

Information you provide

When you use our contact form, you may provide your name, email address, phone number, the topic you are interested in, and any message you choose to send. We ask that you keep this information general and avoid sharing sensitive clinical details.

Appointment requests

Requests to book a consultation or session are handled through SimplePractice, our scheduling and electronic health record provider. Any information you enter into the SimplePractice booking widget is collected and processed by SimplePractice under its own privacy policy.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site. This may include pages viewed, links and buttons clicked, the approximate geographic region, the type of device and browser you use, and how you arrived at the site. This information is collected through cookies and similar technologies and is used in aggregate.

How we use information

• To respond to your questions and requests.
• To schedule and manage consultations and appointments.
• To operate, maintain, and improve the website.
• To understand how the site is used and how we can make it more helpful.
• To protect the security and integrity of the site.

Cookies and analytics

Our analytics provider uses cookies to recognize returning visitors and measure site usage. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Blocking cookies will not affect your ability to browse the site.

Service providers

We rely on a small number of trusted third parties to operate the site and our practice. Each processes information under its own privacy policy:

• Google Analytics for website usage measurement.
• Web3Forms for delivery of contact form messages.
• SimplePractice for scheduling and client records.
• GitHub Pages for website hosting.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for advertising. We share information only with the service providers listed above as needed to operate the site and our practice, or when required by law, such as to comply with a valid legal request or to protect the safety of a person.

Data retention

We keep the information you send through the website only as long as needed to respond to your inquiry and to maintain reasonable business records. You may ask us to delete information you have provided at any time.

Your privacy choices

If you are a California resident, you have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, to request that we correct or delete it, and to know how it is used. We do not sell personal information. To make a request, contact us by phone or text at (213) 340-4737. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.

Children’s privacy

This website is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through the website. If you believe a child has provided information through the site, please contact us so we can remove it.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect information submitted through the site. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure. Please do not send sensitive personal or clinical information through the contact form. If you are an existing client, use the secure client portal for confidential communication.

Links to other sites

Our website may link to third-party sites, such as the booking portal or professional directories. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the site after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
