Attendance

Scheduled hours

Your scheduled clinical hours are established at the time of hire and reflected in your Sessions Health calendar. Notify Michael as early as possible if you need to cancel sessions.

Therapist cancellations

If you need to cancel sessions, notify clients with as much advance notice as possible and handle rescheduling before your time off. Last-minute cancellations affect client care continuity and should be minimized. Patterns of session cancellations should be discussed with Joe.

Holidays

Full-time clinicians receive a yearly allotment of paid holiday days that can be used on any day of your choosing — they don't need to fall on traditional holidays. Holiday time is compensated at the PTO rate ($25/hr) for your regularly scheduled hours.

Client contact policy

Between-session communication

Administrative communication from clients should be directed to Michael. Clinical between-session messages should be acknowledged and addressed at the next scheduled session.

After-hours contact

You are not expected to be available to clients after business hours. Clients in crisis should be directed to 988, 911, or their nearest emergency room — not to you directly.

Personal contact information

Do not share your personal phone number, personal email, or personal social media with clients. All client communication occurs through practice channels only.
