@octoberfull: How should the therapist have responded? Because her style is to analyze me - what I say, what I feel, and what I do. She didn't say much about her violation, except that she did transition all her patients to a HIPAA-compliant video calling site except for me. Because we were already using Skype before she made the transition. I am doubtful, though, because like I said, she had scheduled a patient right after me yesterday, and the patient called her on Skype while we were finishing up our session. lol. I did ask her if what I did was wrong. That was when she said yes.

I didn't even get on her case about using Skype - a non-HIPAA compliant communication tool. I know that she knows. But most some professionals still use Skype, anyway, because it's more convenient and they don't think anything bad is going to happen from it. It's kind of like going out for a hike even though it's raining and the lightening could strike you. lol.
