Consent for Biblical Counseling

I understand Teet’s Counseling and Resource Network, LLC (TCRN) has a staff of biblical counselors who offer short- term care and intervention for a variety of problems. I understand that it is both my and my counselor’s responsibility to make sure that no professional boundaries are crossed at any time. I understand that I may choose to opt out of this relationship at any time without penalty. I understand that all information disclosed within sessions is confidential and may not be revealed to anyone outside the counseling center without my written permission, except where disclosure is required by law or due to imminent danger posed to self or another.

I understand that these services are available to me on a short-term basis (six (6) sessions) but that they can be extended if necessary but, the availability and appropriateness of the extended service is determined by the needs that I present. If necessary, I will be given referrals for more appropriate resources. I understand that there are potential risks and benefits to biblical counseling and that I will explore both of these with my counselor as well as other possible interventions.

I understand that sessions cost $80 and I will make on-line payments at least one hour before the session begins. I agree to give 24 hours notice if I need to cancel (except in cases of real emergencies) and that I may be charged for missed appointments for “no shows”.

In light of these understandings, I consent to enter into a biblical counseling relationship with Teet’s Counseling and Resource Network, LLC.
