Colangelo Counseling Terms & Conditions

Effective Date: September 27, 2026

Welcome to the website of Colangelo Counseling. These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) apply to your access to and use of www.colangelocounseling.com (the “Website”). By using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.

These Terms apply to the Website only. Therapy services are governed by separate informed consent, practice policies, and privacy documents provided during the intake process.

Informational purposes only

The information on the Website is provided for general educational and informational purposes. It is not psychotherapy, medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it is not a substitute for care from a qualified health professional who understands your circumstances. Reading the Website or using its resources does not create a therapist-client relationship.

No therapist-client relationship through the Website

Visiting the Website, sending an inquiry, requesting or scheduling a consultation, or communicating with Colangelo Counseling through the Website does not by itself establish a therapist-client relationship. A relationship begins only when you and Colangelo Counseling mutually agree to therapy and the practice confirms that services will be provided, with the required informed consent and intake steps completed.

Please do not use the Website, email, or a contact form for emergencies or urgent clinical concerns. These channels are not monitored continuously and are not a substitute for emergency or crisis services. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. In the United States, you can call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Scheduling and client portal

The Website may link to a third-party scheduling tool or client portal, including SimplePractice. Those services are operated by third parties and are subject to their own terms, privacy notices, and security practices. Colangelo Counseling does not control those services. Please review their terms and privacy information before using them. Do not include sensitive health information in a general Website inquiry or ordinary email.

Intellectual property

Unless otherwise indicated, Website content—including text, graphics, logos, photographs, and downloadable resources—is owned by Colangelo Counseling or used with permission and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may view and share links to the Website for personal, noncommercial use. You may not copy, reproduce, modify, republish, distribute, or use Website content for commercial purposes without prior written permission, except where the law allows.

External links

The Website may link to third-party websites or services for convenience. Colangelo Counseling does not control or endorse all content on those sites and is not responsible for their availability, terms, privacy practices, or security. Your use of a third-party site is at your own discretion and subject to its terms.

No guarantees

We make reasonable efforts to keep Website information useful and current, but we do not guarantee that it is complete, accurate, up to date, or appropriate for every person or situation. Website information and resources may change without notice. References to therapies or services do not guarantee a particular result.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Colangelo Counseling is not responsible for loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Website or reliance on its general information. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. These Terms do not replace or modify the rights, responsibilities, or remedies that apply to therapy services under your separate service documents or applicable law.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of North Carolina, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where another jurisdiction’s law must apply. This provision applies to use of the Website and does not alter any legal requirements that apply to therapy services provided to clients located in North Carolina or South Carolina.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The revised version will be posted on the Website with a new effective date. Your continued use of the Website after revised Terms are posted means you accept the revised Terms.
