This page is provided for informational purposes and is intended to clearly explain the nature and boundaries of the coaching services offered through this website.

Please read this disclosure carefully before subscribing, enrolling, purchasing, or participating in any coaching programs, groups, or services.

​

Nature of the Relationship

By engaging in any offerings, you acknowledge that you are entering into a coaching relationship, not psychotherapy, counseling, or mental health treatment.

Coaching is a non-clinical, growth-oriented process that may include somatic practices, nervous system regulation, neural reprogramming, reflective inquiry, psychoeducation, and spiritual exploration. While this work may be emotionally meaningful or personally transformative, it is not a substitute for licensed mental health care, medical care, or crisis services.

Participation in coaching does not create a therapist–client relationship.

​

Professional Role & Licensure Disclosure

Dr. Kat is licensed as a Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. However, Dr. Kat is not acting in the role of a licensed mental health counselor in any coaching programs, groups, or services offered through this website.

No psychotherapy, counseling, diagnosis, assessment, or clinical mental health services are provided, regardless of participant location. All coaching services are offered outside the scope of Florida mental health licensure.

​

Scope of Coaching Services

Coaching services may include neural reprogramming and habit or pattern work, somatic and body-based awareness practices, nervous system regulation and embodiment exercises, breathwork and mindfulness practices, psychoeducational discussion related to trauma responses and behavioral patterns, and values clarification, meaning-making, and spiritual exploration.

All services are educational, experiential, and developmental in nature. They are not clinical, diagnostic, or therapeutic services.

​

Explicit Exclusions

Within the coaching relationship, no mental health diagnosis is made, no psychotherapy or counseling is provided, no treatment of mental illness occurs, no psychological or clinical assessments are conducted, and no medical or psychological advice is given.

No documentation is provided for third parties, including courts or legal proceedings, attorneys or legal representatives, employers, disability or insurance claims, or government, immigration, or regulatory agencies.

Dr. Kat does not write letters, reports, evaluations, or professional opinions for legal, medical, or administrative purposes.

​

Participation by Adolescents (Minors)

Some coaching services may be offered to adolescents under the age of 18.

Participation by a minor requires the informed consent of a parent or legal guardian. By enrolling a minor, the parent or legal guardian affirms that they have read and agreed to this disclosure on behalf of the child.

For adolescents, coaching remains non-clinical and non-therapeutic. No diagnosis, counseling, or psychotherapy is provided, and coaching is not a substitute for mental health treatment, school-based services, or medical care.

Parents or legal guardians remain responsible for the minor’s mental health and medical care, including securing licensed or emergency services if needed.

Dr. Kat does not provide custody evaluations, court-related services, parental reports, or legal documentation involving minors.

​​

U.S. Residents Outside Florida

If you reside in a U.S. state other than Florida, you acknowledge that coaching services are not regulated as mental health care, no services are being provided under any state mental health license, and this relationship does not constitute therapy under your state’s laws.

You are responsible for seeking licensed care in your state of residence if needed.

​

International (Non-U.S.) Participants

If you reside outside the United States, you acknowledge that coaching is not psychotherapy, counseling, or medical treatment under U.S. or international standards, no regulated health services are being provided, and you are responsible for understanding and complying with the laws of your country regarding coaching, wellness, or personal development services.

This program is offered as personal development coaching, not healthcare.

​​

Mental Health & Medical Responsibility

Participants, or parents and guardians of minor participants, are responsible for maintaining appropriate mental health and medical care.

Coaching services are not appropriate for individuals currently experiencing active suicidal ideation, psychosis or unmanaged bipolar symptoms, severe substance dependence requiring clinical treatment, or any condition requiring licensed mental health or medical intervention.

Coaching may be used alongside therapy or medical care, but it does not replace it.

​

Voluntary Participation & Personal Responsibility

Participation in coaching is voluntary. Outcomes are not guaranteed.

Participants acknowledge that emotional discomfort may arise during growth-oriented work, that they are responsible for their own choices, interpretations, and actions, and that they are encouraged to pace themselves and discontinue participation if coaching no longer feels appropriate.

​

Emergencies & Crisis Situations

Coaching services are not crisis services.

If a participant is in immediate danger or experiencing a mental health emergency, they should contact local emergency services, a crisis hotline in their country, or a licensed mental health or medical professional.

​

Governing Law

This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, regardless of participant location.

​

Acknowledgment & Consent

By subscribing, enrolling, purchasing, or participating in any offerings, you confirm that you have read and understood this disclosure, understand the distinction between coaching and therapy, and consent to participate in a coaching relationship under these terms. If enrolling a minor, you affirm that you are the parent or legal guardian and consent on the child’s behalf.
