Confidentiality Policy
 
     
  Dr. Garlock and The Family Resource Center and it's staff and clinical affiliates all adhere to the applicable confidentiality rules and regulations of the various credentialling bodies that regulate the professional conduct of the professionals and staff members.  
     
  Dr. Garlock assures each site visitor that any information that they transmit to his websites is confidential and that steps have been taken to assure confidentiality. These include the utilization of Secure Form technologies to make certain that clinical and financial information is transmitted securely at all times. All information is stored and maintained in a safe and secure location both physically and electronically.  
     
  Our various credentialling bodies all have rules and regulations about the access, storage and maintenance of individual clinical data which we strongly adhere to. We are regulated by the Texas State Board of Professional Counselors, the Texas State Board of Marriage and Family Therapists and the Texas State Board of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Counselors. In addition, the respective third party payors such as insurance companies and managed care companies also have rules and regulations regarding the confidentiality of clinical data which must also be adhered to. We adhere to those rules and regulations as well.  
     
  Please note that the funding source for our programs and services is generated through direct client services fees generated by our professional staff. We take no monies for advertising on our site.
