TECHNOLOGY: Capturing Hope recognizes the convenience of communication technologies such as social media, email, texting and voicemail. Although we are careful in our use of technology, there is a risk with these forms of communication. We do not use an encrypted system (guaranteed secure for HIPPA requirements); therefore, we try to limit identifying information and details of treatment via these communication methods. However, a client may choose to use one of these methods and include more details with the understanding that the therapist may only respond in acknowledgment of receiving the information. By using these methods, the client agrees to accept these risks. *
