Privacy & Notices

Your information and your rights.

This page summarizes the key notices that all clients of this practice are entitled to. The full documents will be reviewed with you at intake and a signed copy will be kept in your file.


Notice of Privacy Practices (HIPAA)

Hannah currently practices through Genesis Counseling in Boca Raton, Florida. Genesis is the covered entity for all clinical care, including telehealth sessions across Florida. Genesis's Notice of Privacy Practices governs how your protected health information is used, disclosed, and protected. You will receive the full notice at intake and a signed acknowledgment will be kept in your file.

Email correspondence with Hannah is delivered to her Genesis-managed address and is held under that same privacy environment. Please avoid sending detailed clinical information by ordinary email, since the outbound side of your own email provider sits outside that environment.


Good Faith Estimate (No Surprises Act)

Under federal law (Public Health Service Act, 45 CFR 149.610), you have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges for healthcare services before you receive them. This includes therapy.

You will be given a written Good Faith Estimate before your first session, and you may request one at any time. If your final bill is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill.


Supervised Practice Disclosure

Hannah Lee, MS, is a Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern (RMHCI) in the State of Florida. Per Florida law (FL Statute 491), an RMHCI practices under the qualified supervision of a fully licensed mental health professional. Hannah's qualified supervisor is:

Karin Witte, LMHC #MH13488

This means a fully licensed clinician consults with Hannah regularly about her clinical work, ensuring the care you receive is held to the standards of the profession. This arrangement is a routine and required part of becoming an independently licensed therapist in Florida.


Crisis & Emergency

Therapy is not a crisis service. If you are in immediate danger or thinking about hurting yourself or someone else, please call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or call 911. You may also go to your nearest emergency room.
