02 — CLINICAL BOUNDARIES

Information — Not Counseling or Medical Advice

Website content is provided for general educational and informational purposes.
It is not counseling, medical advice, psychiatric care, crisis intervention, a diagnosis, or a treatment plan.
The information on this website should not replace individualized care from a qualified healthcare or mental health professional who understands your circumstances. Do not disregard or delay professional care because of something you read on this website.

No counselor-client relationship

Viewing this website, downloading a resource, sending a message, completing a contact form, joining an email list, requesting a consultation, or interacting with Milton’s Place Counseling online does not create a counselor-client relationship.

No Guaranteed Outcome

People respond to counseling differently. Milton’s Place Counseling does not promise or guarantee a specific diagnosis, recommendation, treatment result, symptom reduction, insurance determination, or other outcome.

Nothing on this website guarantees that Milton’s Place Counseling will be an appropriate clinical fit for a particular person or concern.

Licensure, Location, and Service Availability

Counseling may be provided only when the client is physically located in a state where the treating clinician is legally authorized to practice at the time of service.

Milton’s Place Counseling currently provides telehealth services to eligible clients located in Michigan, Minnesota, Idaho, Iowa, Arizona, and Ohio. Availability may vary based on clinician licensure, scheduling, insurance participation, clinical needs, age, service requested, and overall fit.

Information on this website does not guarantee that a particular service is legally or clinically available in every location.

Establishment of counselor-client relationship

A counselor-client relationship begins only after:

Milton’s Place Counseling and the prospective client mutually agree to begin services
The clinician determines that the requested services are clinically appropriate and within the clinician’s professional scope
Required intake and informed-consent documents are completed
Any applicable payment or insurance arrangements are addressed
An initial counseling appointment is confirmed

Submitting an inquiry does not guarantee acceptance as a client.

03 — CONTACT, CONSULTATIONS, AND SCHEDULING

Messages, Consultations, and Electronic Communication

Contact Forms and Email

Website forms and regular email should be used only for routine, non-urgent communication. Please do not include detailed clinical information, medical records, Social Security numbers, payment-card information, or other highly sensitive information unless you are using a secure communication method approved by the practice.

Although Milton’s Place takes reasonable precautions, website and email communications may not be completely secure.

Electronic Messages

Electronic messages may not be reviewed immediately.

Sending a message does not confirm that:

The message was received or reviewed
An appointment has been scheduled
Insurance coverage has been verified
Services have been accepted or approved
A counselor-client relationship has begun

Consultations

A free consultation is an opportunity to briefly discuss your needs, ask general questions, and explore whether Milton’s Place Counseling may be an appropriate fit.

A consultation is not a counseling session, diagnostic evaluation, crisis assessment, or guarantee that services will be offered.

Although Milton’s Place takes reasonable precautions, website and email communications may not be completely secure.

Appointments and Practice Policies

Appointment availability, fees, payment expectations, insurance participation, cancellation requirements, telehealth procedures, communication boundaries, and clinical policies are explained separately before counseling begins.

Information displayed on the website may change. Prospective clients should confirm current availability, fees, insurance participation, and service details directly with Milton’s Place Counseling.

04 — PRIVACY, CONTENT, AND EXTERNAL SERVICES

How Website Information May Be Used

Website Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how information collected through the public website may be used and protected.

Clinical health-information practices are addressed separately through the applicable Notice of Privacy Practices, informed-consent documents, and client policies.

No method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely risk-free. Please consider the sensitivity of the information you provide through any website, form, email, or electronic service.

Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, the website’s text, graphics, logos, branding, downloadable materials, photographs, layout, and original design elements are owned by or licensed to Milton’s Place Counseling.

You may view, download, or print website content for personal, noncommercial use. You may not reproduce, modify, republish, distribute, sell, license, or commercially use website content without prior written permission.

Third-party Links and Services

This website may link to external schedulers, client portals, insurers, professional directories, crisis resources, social-media platforms, or other third-party websites and services.

These links are provided for convenience. Third-party services operate under their own terms, policies, security practices, and privacy notices. Milton’s Place Counseling does not control or guarantee the accuracy, availability, security, or content of external services.

A link does not necessarily mean that Milton’s Place Counseling endorses every statement, product, service, or practice offered by that third party.

Accuracy and Availability

We work to keep website information accurate, useful, and current. However, information may contain errors, become outdated, or be incomplete.

To the extent permitted by law, this website is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, complete accuracy, or that every website feature will function without error.

Visitors should verify important clinical, insurance, scheduling, payment, and service information directly with Milton’s Place before relying on it.

05 — LEGAL TERMS

Changes, Governing Law, and Questions

We may revise these terms by posting an updated version and revision date on this page.
Your continued use of the website after changes are posted indicates your acceptance of the revised website terms.

Limitation of Website Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Milton’s Place Counseling is not responsible for losses arising solely from reliance on general website content, temporary website unavailability, third-party services, or unauthorized use of the website.

Nothing in these terms limits any responsibility that cannot legally be excluded. These website terms do not replace or reduce the professional duties that apply after a counselor-client relationship has been established.

Governing Law

These Website Terms of Use are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, without overriding any rights or protections that cannot lawfully be waived.

Severability

If any portion of these terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that portion will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary. The remaining terms will continue to apply.
