Kelli Morin, LCSW is committed to protecting your privacy and securing your personal health information. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information related to your use of this website and engagement with the practice.

1. Website Data Collection

This website uses standard tools (such as Squarespace Analytics or Google Analytics) to collect non-identifiable information about site usage, including:

  • Pages visited

  • Time spent on the site

  • Browser type

This data is used solely to improve the user experience of the website and is not linked to your personal health information (PHI).

2. Protecting Personal Health Information (PHI)

The security of your Personal Health Information is paramount.

  • Scheduling System: When you use the "Book a Consultation" function, you are directed to a third-party, HIPAA-compliant platform (SimplePractice or similar EHR). This system operates under its own stringent security protocols to safeguard your health and identifying data.

  • Email: Communication via standard email (kelli@kellimorinlcsw.com) is generally not a secure, encrypted platform. Therefore, please limit email content to scheduling and simple administrative requests, and avoid sending sensitive clinical details through standard email.
