Privacy Policy

At Lifestance Health (“we,” “our,” or “us”), your privacy matters. This policy explains, in plain language, how we handle personal information collected through our website lifestancehealthy.com, by phone or email, and during your use of our services across the United States.

Health information comes first. When we provide clinical services, your protected health information (PHI) is handled in accordance with HIPAA and applicable state laws. This policy describes our website and general privacy practices. If you receive care, you may also receive HIPAA notices from your clinician or practice location that describe additional privacy rights and protections.

No system can be guaranteed secure, but we work hard to protect your information and to respond promptly if an issue arises.
