1. The Counselors and the Counselor Services
The Platform may be used to connect you with a provider, variously credentialed and experienced based on regional jurisdiction (“Counselor”) who will provide services to you through the Platform [“Counselor Services”].
For Our Uses
We require every Counselor providing Counseling Services on the Platform to have an accredited background and relevant qualifications. Counselors may be licensed with the Allied Health Council in St. Lucia, the Trinidad and Tobago Association of Psychologists, or a similar recognized licensing board within the Caribbean. They must hold at minimum a master’s degree in Clinical Counseling, Clinical Psychology, Clinical Community Counseling, Mental Health Counseling, or a closely related field. Additionally, they should have at least 3 years of professional experience in a relevant field and hours of hands-on experience. They also need to meet the qualification and certification standards including all necessary education, exams, training, and practice requirements as applicable.
The Counselors are all independent providers who are neither employed by Healthy Healing Counseling Services nor our agents or representatives. The role of our Platform is limited to providing access to or enabling the provision of Counselor Services. The Counselors are solely responsible for the performance of the Counselor Services. If you believe that such Counselor Services do not meet your expectations, you may change to a different counselor who provides services via our Platform. Should the counselor who you have been receiving Counselor Services from no longer provides services via our Platform, we will notify you via email and you will be given the opportunity to match with a new counselor.
While we hope the Counselor Services would be beneficial to you, you understand, acknowledge and agree that they may not be the most appropriate solution for everyone’s needs and that they may not be appropriate for every particular situation and/or a substitute for certain mental health needs which may require in person therapy or counseling services.
NOTICE: If you are thinking about suicide or if you are considering harming yourself or others or if you feel that any other person may be in any danger or if you have any medical emergency, you must immediately call your local emergency services number and notify the relevant authorities (click here for a link to the relevant emergency crisis resources for you area). The Platform was not designed or created for the use of any of these aforementioned cases and the counselors cannot provide the assistance required in any of the aforementioned cases.
The Platform is also not intended for the provision of any clinical diagnosis requiring an in person evaluation and you should not use it if you need any official documentation or approvals for purposes such as, but not limited to, court-ordered counseling/ therapy. It is also not intended for any information regarding which drugs or medical treatment may be appropriate for you, and you should ignore and disregard any such advice delivered through this platform.
