Effective Date: October 1, 2026

These Terms of Use apply to www.drgrisel.com, the website of Dr. Grisel Psychotherapy, LLC (“Dr. Grisel Psychotherapy,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By using this website, you agree to these Terms of Use. These Terms of Use govern use of the website only. They do not constitute or replace the informed consent, privacy notices, practice policies, or other agreements that apply to psychotherapy clients.

1. Purpose of This Website

This website provides information about Dr. Grisel Psychotherapy, psychotherapy services offered by Dr. Grisel Lopez-Escobar, and educational resources related to mental health, religious trauma, religious deconstruction, high-control religions and groups, and related topics.

Information on this website is provided for general informational and educational purposes.

2. Website Use Does Not Establish a Therapist-Client Relationship

Visiting this website, reading its content, submitting a contact form, sending an email, or requesting a consultation does not establish a therapist-client relationship with Dr. Grisel Lopez-Escobar or Dr. Grisel Psychotherapy.

A therapist-client relationship is established only after Dr. Grisel and a prospective client have mutually agreed to begin psychotherapy and the appropriate intake and informed-consent process has been completed.

Nothing on this website is intended to constitute individualized psychological, medical, legal, or other professional advice.

3. Psychotherapy Services

Dr. Grisel Psychotherapy provides psychotherapy to adults age 18 and older.

Psychotherapy may be provided only when Dr. Grisel is legally authorized to provide services to a client in the jurisdiction in which the client is physically located at the time services are provided.

Current information regarding Dr. Grisel’s professional licenses is available on the Education/Licensure section of this website.

Submitting a consultation request does not guarantee that psychotherapy services will be available or appropriate for a particular individual.

4. Emergencies and Crisis Situations

This website, its contact form, and email are not intended for emergencies or crisis communication and are not monitored continuously.

If you are experiencing an emergency or believe that you or another person may be in immediate danger, call 911 or the appropriate emergency service where you are located, or go to the nearest emergency department.

In the United States, you may also call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Do not use this website’s contact form or email for urgent or emergency situations.

5. Contact Form and Electronic Communications

Prospective clients may voluntarily use the website’s contact form to inquire about services.

Please provide only the information necessary for your initial inquiry and only information you are comfortable transmitting electronically. You do not need to provide detailed clinical or personal information when making an initial inquiry.

Submitting the contact form or sending an email does not establish a therapist-client relationship.

Dr. Grisel Psychotherapy generally responds to new inquiries by email. Email and ordinary internet communications may have privacy and security limitations.

Current clients should use the communication methods established as part of their clinical care rather than relying on the website contact form.

6. Privacy

Dr. Grisel Psychotherapy respects the privacy of website visitors, prospective clients, and current clients.

Information voluntarily submitted through this website may be used to respond to inquiries and administer the website and practice.

The website may also collect limited technical information through cookies, analytics, or similar technologies used in operating and improving the website.
