Welcome to Graceful Pines Counseling & Consultation, PLLC. I am honored to walk alongside you during this season of growth, healing, and reflection.

Please review the information below to help ensure your first appointment goes as smoothly as possible.

Important Information

To secure your scheduled appointment, all intake paperwork must be completed within 24 hours of booking your session.

If paperwork is not completed within this timeframe, your appointment may be cancelled and will need to be rescheduled.

After scheduling, you will receive an email with instructions to access your secure Client Portal. All required forms and intake documents will be completed through the portal. The system is user friendly and can be accessed from any device.

Once your portal access has been set up, I will follow up with you regarding next steps and appointment details.

Accessing Your Client Portal

Your Client Portal allows you to:

• Complete required paperwork and intake forms

• Manage and request appointments

• Access telehealth sessions (if applicable)

• Communicate regarding scheduling needs

If you have not received your portal access email, or if you need assistance logging in, please contact me at: dr.royal@gracefulpinescounseling.com

Children in the Office

To maintain a safe, calm, and therapeutic environment for all clients, the following guidelines apply:

• Children may not be left unattended in the office at any time.

• Running in the office is not permitted.

• For children participating in play therapy, a parent or guardian must remain on site during the session, either in the waiting area or in their vehicle.

• Children may not be dropped off and left during their scheduled appointment time.

Thank you for helping create a space that is safe and supportive for everyone.
