Eileen Borski PLLC and Authentic Brain Solutions do have a social media presence, so it’s important to note that these social media accounts and sites are not a substitution for therapy, nor are they an acceptable contact method for current or former clients. I will not respond to comments, direct messages, or any other form of social media contact from current or former clients in order to protect their confidentiality. I do not provide clinical assessment or therapeutic advice via social media.

𝐁𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠
I maintain a blog as part of my web presence in order to market to potential clients and provide useful information and free resources related to my niche. These articles are not a substitute for therapy and should not be interpreted as professional advice.

I don’t accept friend requests, connect requests, or follow requests from clients. However, there are some social media platforms where I am not able to screen followers. For example, people are free to “Like” my page. It’s important to note that if you choose to follow/like these accounts, your confidentiality cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, I do not encourage follows from clients, and I will not follow them back or reciprocate the interaction.

If current or former clients comment on social media content from the Authentic Brain Solutions social media sites, or other social media accounts or sites owned and operated by Eileen Borski, LPC, NCC, please know that I will not respond to these comments or interactions. I will, however, occasionally interact with non-clients online but I will not provide clinical assessment or therapeutic advice via social media. Non-clients should not use comments to solicit professional advice or help. If I am not your therapist and you have not provided your consent for treatment with the Eileen Borski PLLC, Eileen Borski, LPC, NCC or Authentic Brain Solutions, I cannot provide therapy services to you. You should seek the support of a trusted professional who is contracted to provide therapy services to you.

Current or former clients should not use social media to send direct messages to discuss their treatment, provide updates between sessions, or otherwise interact with me as their therapist. These sites are not secure, and I do not review these messages in a timely fashion. I will not respond to direct messages and will talk with clients using a secure platform to discuss these concerns. Non-clients should not use direct messaging to solicit professional advice or help. If I am not your therapist and you have not provided your consent for treatment with Eileen Borski, PLLC, Eileen Borski, LPC or Authentic Brain Solutinos, I cannot provide therapy services to you. You should seek the support of a trusted professional who is contracted to provide therapy services to you. In the case of an emergency or mental health crisis, you should contact, 988 su***de and crisis lifeline, your local mental health crisis hotline or your own providers. You should never use direct messages or text messages to seek mental health support. I may not see it for several hours or at all. This puts your safety at risk, and you may risk the confidentiality of your Protected Health Information. I do not use text/SMS messaging to conduct therapy or crisis management for current or former clients. I require that all therapy or crisis management concerns be communicated via phone call or secure voicemail message. NOTE: Any comments, emails, texts, messages, or “DMs” (direct messages) you send that contain information related to your treatment will very likely become part of active clients’ health records.

You may find my practice on sites like Google Business, Yelp, Healthgrades, CareDash, Bing, or other places which list businesses. Some of these sites include forums in which users rate their providers and add reviews. Some of these sites comb search engines for business listings and automatically add listings regardless of whether the business has added itself to the site. If you should find my listing on any of these sites, please know that my listing is NOT a request for a testimonial, rating, or endorsement from current or former clients. The American Counseling Association’s Code of Ethics states that counselors should not solicit testimonials from clients, and I adhere to this code. Clients have a right to express their thoughts and feelings on any site they wish, but due to confidentiality, I cannot respond to reviews, positive or negative. And in doing so they make public their protected health information. Because of this, I strongly encourage past and former clients to refrain from leaving business profile reviews even if they are positive reviews. While I truly appreciate the positive feedback, I would rather clients share it directly with me than risk their privacy. The same goes for negative reviews. I welcome constructive feedback and want my clients’ experience in therapy to be positive and productive. I encourage clients to bring concerns directly to me so we can work on it together versus taking it to a public forum, risking confidentiality in the process. Current and former clients should also be aware that if they plan to use these sites to communicate indirectly with me about their feelings or concerns, there is a good possibility that I may never see it. Past or current clients who are unsatisfied with my response to their concerns may contact the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council by phone at 512.305.7700, on their website at www.bhec.texas.gov or via mail at 1801 Congress Avenue, Suite 7.300, Austin, TX 78701.
