Privacy Policy

Last updated July 10, 2026

Kathleen Nowicki, LMSW dba KN Mental Health Services, LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the information you share through our website (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected through the Site, how that information may be used, when it may be shared, and what choices you may have regarding your information.

Information may be collected when you provide it directly, such as when you complete a contact form, sign up for a newsletter, request an appointment, or otherwise communicate through the Site. This may include your name, email address, phone number, and any other information you choose to submit. In addition, certain information may be collected automatically when you visit the Site, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and general usage patterns. This information may be collected through cookies, analytics tools, or similar technologies.

The information collected through the Site may be used to respond to inquiries, communicate about services, schedule consultations or appointments, send requested information, improve website performance, maintain security, and support normal business operations. If you opt in to receive emails or other communications, your information may also be used to send practice updates, newsletters, or other relevant content.

Submitting information through this Site does not create a therapist-client relationship. The Site is intended for general informational and contact purposes only. Because standard website forms and email may not be fully secure, highly sensitive, urgent, or confidential clinical information should not be submitted through the Site unless a secure method has been specifically provided.

If you become a client, information shared in the course of treatment may be subject to separate privacy practices, intake documents, informed consent materials, and any applicable legal requirements, including HIPAA where relevant. Information submitted through the public website may not receive the same protections as information shared through a secure client portal or within a formal clinical relationship.

Personal information is not sold. Information may be shared with trusted third-party service providers that support operation of the Site or the practice, such as website hosting companies, email platforms, scheduling systems, analytics providers, or practice management vendors. Information may also be disclosed when required by law, to comply with legal obligations or process, to protect rights or safety, or to prevent fraud, misuse, or other harmful activity.

The Site may use cookies, pixels, analytics tools, or related technologies to better understand visitor behavior and improve functionality and performance. Most web browsers allow users to control cookies through browser settings, although disabling cookies may affect how some parts of the Site function.

If you contact the practice by email or through the Site, copies of those communications may be retained for recordkeeping, follow-up, and business purposes. While reasonable steps may be taken to protect information, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. For that reason, any information submitted online is provided at your own risk.

If you have signed up for marketing or newsletter communications, you may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in those messages or by contacting the practice directly. You may also request that your contact information be updated or corrected, subject to applicable law and any legitimate administrative or clinical recordkeeping needs.

The Site may contain links to third-party websites or services. Those third parties have their own privacy practices, and KN Mental Health Services, LLC is not responsible for their content, policies, or handling of information. Reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party sites before sharing personal information is recommended.

The Site is not directed to children under the age of 13, and personal information is not knowingly collected from children under 13 through the Site without appropriate consent. If such information is discovered to have been collected inadvertently, reasonable steps may be taken to delete it.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in the Site, legal requirements, or business practices. Any updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
