Automatically Collected Website Information

This website is hosted on Wix.com, which may automatically collect limited, non-identifying information such as:

• Website traffic data

Clients must:

If you submit health or mental health information through forms linked on this website, that information may be considered Protected Health Information (PHI) under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

Reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards are used to protect PHI in compliance with HIPAA and applicable Missouri laws. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure.
