Terms and Conditions

Praktijk Corien Boers / LerenLiefhebben

 

General terms and conditions 2023/1

​

The general terms and conditions of practice Corien Boers, are no exception to common general terms and conditions and are therefore formulated in a fairly one-sided and black-and-white manner. In the event of a complaint or conflict, Corien Boers assumes that everyone accepts his or her own responsibility and acts from the point of view of respecting the sustainability of the relationships.

 

Start of the conversations

The first appointment is always an intake interview, which lasts 30 minutes. The actual treatment will not start in this conversation. This conversation includes an introduction, an analysis of the experienced problems and an inventory of both parties whether the treatment will be started. The cost of this conversation is € 50,-.

 

Handle agreement

    1. If all parties involved, agree to enter into the treatment, a treatment

        agreement will be concluded with the client.

    2. This treatment agreement will be confirmed by the signature of all clients

         involved.

    3. In this treatment agreement it is stated that you agree with the following 

        points:

 

Reporting on treatment

    1. Corien Boers reports per session on the content and progress of the therapy.

        This report is carefully kept by Corien Boers and is not available for

        inspection by third parties.

    2. Clients have the right to inspect the file, in accordance with the WGBO

         (Medical Treatment Agreement Act).

    3. Corien Boers does not report to third parties under any circumstances, not

        during and not after the treatment. Not even at the request of clients

        themselves.

    4. The report will be written down in a notebook, which has doubly protected

        passwords.

    5. Due to legal regulations, the report must be kept for a period of 10 years after

        the conversations have 

        ended. Because of to the small scale of the practice, storage space and

        possibilities, Corien Boers reserves the right to keep the data for a period of 7

        years. Unless the client requests an extension of storage or earlier destruction.

        This request will be continued through an amendment to this agreement.

  6.   Names will not be written down in full in this report, but will be indicated by

        means of initials

​

Consultation with third parties

    1. In order to guarantee the quality of the treatments, Corien Boers participates,

        among other things, in intervision and supervision. Parts of treatments can be

       discussed here. However, when describing the situation, Corien Boers will only

       use first names and will under no circumstances mention last names. 

       Colleagues who participate in the intervision and/or supervision are, like

       Corien Boers, bound by a professional code and therefore have a duty of

       confidentiality, just like Corien Boers.

    2. In the event of a situation that threatens the health and/or well-being of the

        client and/or others, Corien Boers may choose to consult with third parties.

        The client's prior written consent is requested for this, unless the health and/or

        safety of the client and/or others seems to be at stake in such an acute way 

        that the situation necessitates consultation without this prior consent. Corien

        Boers invokes her responsibility for identifying, discussing and acting

        accordingly.

​

Recordings

    1. It is possible that Corien Boers asks clients for their permission to make an

        audiovisual recording for the purpose of intervision and/or supervision with

       colleagues. Due to the content, the visual material is the 

       property of the client, but the client gives Corien Boers permission to borrow it

       for the relevant intervision and/or supervision. 

    2. In some cases, Corien Boers may ask clients to use (parts of) their recordings

        for lectures, information or training to/from third parties. These recordings

       remain the property of Corien Boers, as a therapist, and will never be loaned or

        published. These recordings will not be destroyed after treatment 

        has ended.The recordings are not made for treatment, diagnosis or prognosis

        and are not part of the clinical reporting. No copies will be made and

        recordings will not be passed on to third parties. If you give permission for the

        making and use of recordings for training purposes, a separate permission

        form will be signed.

 

   3. Clients have the right not to give this consent or to withdraw previously given

       consent at any time. In the latter case, the recordings already made, will be

       destroyed. This will not affect the treatment.

​

Duration of the conversations

    1. Couple conversations last 75 minutes, unless a different duration has been

       agreed in advance.

​

Cost of the treatment

  1. The cost of a conversation is €125.00 per hour. The costs are calculated over the direct contact time. The preparation time and the time for reporting are not included and no costs will be charged for this.
