OUR APPROACH
At Bethel Ridge we believe in a holistic approach to therapy, addressing our client's needs on three levels, their mind, their body, and their spirit. We realize that people are complex beings with multifaceted issues, and cannot, therefore, be treated using simple methods or solutions. Our therapists work with our clients to develop a comprehensive, personalized treatment plan that is relevant, realistic, and flexible. In addition, we help our clients create and maintain a healthy support system that will facilitate the healing process long after therapy has ended.
CONFIDENTIALITY
At Bethel Ridge Family Resources our client's privacy is our top priority. All records and personal data are kept in a locked, fire-resistant cabinet, and our office is locked and protected with an alarm system when no personnel is on the premises. In addition, Washington State law prohibits us from releasing any client information to third parties without our client's written and signed consent. For more details and exceptions see Washington State Department of Health publication “Counseling or Hypnotherapy Clients” Confidentiality Statement.
