You are responsible for any session(s) you do not provide at least 24 hours notice of cancellation. Each late cancellation or no show appointment is subject to a $100.00 fee. Please note if you arrive late to your session, your session will still end at the originally anticipated time. You will not be able to make up that time and session cost will remain the same.
You are given a 15 minute grace period. If you are more than 15 minutes late to your session, I have the discretion to cancel session and you will be charged for no show or late cancellation.Please note there will be times I may have a crisis or emergency. I ask for flexibility regarding such challenges as unprecedented events due occur. Please be aware that from time to time I may run behind on sessions. Please allow for a small cushion of time in the event of delays.
