Clear roles are part of the product.

Draft operating policies for an Arizona-based, non-clinical marketplace. Final documents require qualified legal review.

Practitioner responsibility

The service and conduct.

  • ✓ Controls and remains responsible for every Method service and communication
  • ✓ Maintains licenses required by law and insurance required by law, the Method risk tier or NoTherapists
  • ✓ Provides evidence when a credential is claimed, applicable or reasonably requested
  • ✓ Works only in approved locations and follows applicable laws
  • ✓ Never provides therapy, diagnosis, clinical assessment, crisis care, medical advice or treatment through NoTherapists
  • ✓ Makes truthful claims, protects client information and reports concerns promptly
Platform responsibility

The marketplace.

  • ✓ Performs baseline identity and scope screening for every applicant
  • ✓ Uses additional verification when credentials, service risk or location require it
  • ✓ Provides directory, booking, payment and profile infrastructure
  • ✓ Maintains monitoring, complaint, suspension and removal processes
  • ✓ May request evidence or remove unsafe, clinical, misleading or infringing content
  • ✓ Does not provide, supervise, endorse or guarantee a practitioner’s Method
Independent relationship

No employment, agency or clinical relationship.

Practitioners are independent providers. Listing, review, search placement or booking access does not constitute endorsement, supervision, clinical approval or a guarantee of quality or results.

Prohibited conduct

No therapy through this marketplace.

× Psychotherapy, counseling, diagnosis or treatment
× Clinical assessment, crisis intervention or emergency care
× Medical, psychiatric, medication or addiction-treatment advice
× False credentials, guaranteed outcomes or unsupported health claims
× Discrimination, harassment, exploitation or boundary violations
× Evading marketplace safety, records or fees

NoTherapists may request evidence, review complaints, pause bookings and remove intentional or inadvertent violations.

Risk-based verification

A baseline for everyone; more proof when warranted.

Every applicant completes identity, business, scope, location, payment and responsibility checks. Licenses are verified when a regulated credential is held or advertised. Insurance certificates and other evidence are required when law, the Method risk tier, service format, location, public claims or a credible concern make them relevant.

Renewals & monitoring

Approval must remain current.

Required and verified licenses or insurance must be renewed before expiration. Practitioners must report restrictions, cancellations and complaints. NoTherapists may conduct periodic reviews and pause a profile while a required item or credible concern is unresolved.

Geographic limits

Online does not automatically mean worldwide.

Booking may be limited by practitioner and client location, payment support, insurance territory and applicable law. Both parties must provide truthful location information.

Content ownership

Practitioners keep their Method.

Practitioners retain their original materials and grant NoTherapists limited display and promotional permission. They promise submitted content is owned or licensed. NoTherapists owns the marketplace, software, template and branding.

Email & free resources

Only the information needed to deliver the resource.

When someone requests a free booklet, NoTherapists records the submitted email address, the requested Method and the request time so the resource can be delivered and the request can be documented. Optional news or promotional email requires a separate choice. Email information is not sold and may be deleted upon request, subject to legal and security needs.

Payments

Transparent marketplace economics.

The intended $99 transaction allocates a $10 platform fee, with other transaction costs assigned to the practitioner where the supported country-specific payment configuration permits.
