Telephone, Media, and Legal Consultation Policy
The Center for Internet Behavior, in conjunction with The Healing Center, LLC, receives numerous requests for advice, information, and consultation on a variety of topics, particularly dealing with internet use, abuse, an addiction. Due to the great number of calls and emails we receive, we are not able to provide email or telephone consultation advice at no charge. Whenever possible, we will attempt to respond to your emails and inquiries and requests for assistance at our earliest convenience.
If you wish a personal professional consultation with Dr. Greenfield or a member of his staff, please contact us by email. Dr. Greenfield or one of his staff will contact you to arrange for a telephone consultation or appointment. In many cases this can be of great assistance in providing you with information and guidance which can be helpful in knowing how, when, and where to seek out assistance from other local professionals.
In addition, Dr. Greenfield or his staff may serve as consultants to your local mental health professionals to provide guidance or information about internet use or abuse. Since there are a limited number of individuals with expertise in the area of internet use, abuse, and addiction, a telephone consultation can be of great assistance.
When you contact our office, we can explain our fee procedures to you. Typically a Master Card or Visa can be used to pay for the consultation. These fees need to be prepaid to hold your appointment time once it is scheduled. The appointments can vary in length, but typically are arranged on a 45 or 90 minute basis. A prearranged telephone number is provided for you to call a the assigned time. Unfortunately we are not always able to answer all general information inquiries with regard to internet use and behavior. We might reference you to our web site or other publications to assist you in that end. We thank you for your time and hope we can provide you with assistance in your situation.
We are aware that many of these situations and circumstances are very sensitive and highly emotional and we are mindful of how important these concerns are to you. Please don’t hesitate to utilize this personal telephone consultation service, as we think it can be very helpful in time of need.
Media and/or Educational Inquiries
The Center for Internet Behavior, in conjunction with The Healing Center, LLC, receive numerous email requests from the media and other individuals seeking information for academic or educational purposes. Again, due to the large number of requests we receive, we are not always able to respond personally to these requests.
