Accessibility Statement

Last updated: April 26, 2026

Our Commitment

Breakthrough Mental Health Counseling PLLC (BMH Counseling) is committed to ensuring our website is accessible to people with disabilities. We aim to conform with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA. We continually improve the user experience for everyone and apply relevant accessibility standards.

Scope

This accessibility statement applies to https://bmhcounseling.com.

Accessibility Features

We have implemented the following features to improve accessibility on our website:

  • All images have descriptive alternative text for screen reader users
  • The website can be navigated using a keyboard only
  • Visible focus indicators are displayed for all interactive elements
  • The website supports browser zoom up to 200% without loss of content or functionality
  • Color contrast ratios meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA requirements
  • Page headings are structured with correct HTML heading hierarchy (H1, H2, H3)
  • The website uses semantic HTML elements including nav, main, header, and footer
  • Form fields have associated labels for screen reader compatibility
  • ARIA attributes are used where appropriate to enhance accessibility
  • The website is compatible with modern screen readers including JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver

Compatible Assistive Technologies

Our website has been evaluated for compatibility with the following assistive technologies:

  • Screen Readers: JAWS (Windows), NVDA (Windows), VoiceOver (macOS/iOS), TalkBack (Android)
  • Screen Magnification: Magnifier (Windows), Zoom (macOS/iOS), ZoomText (Windows)
  • Voice Recognition: Dragon NaturallySpeaking, Voice Control (macOS/iOS), Windows Speech Recognition
  • Mobile Accessibility: AssistiveTouch (iOS), Select to Speak (Android)

Conformance Status

BMH Counseling is partially compliant with WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Partial compliance means that some parts of the content do not yet fully conform to the accessibility standard. We conducted our most recent accessibility evaluation in April 2026 using the WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool by WebAIM. Our automated audit returned zero errors.

Known Limitations

Despite our best efforts, some areas of the website have known accessibility limitations that we are actively working to address:

  • Automatically moving gallery content: The image gallery marquee scrolls automatically and does not currently provide a mechanism for users to pause, stop, or hide the moving content. This may affect users with attention or vestibular disorders. We plan to address this by December 2026.
  • Third-party plugin accessibility: Some accessibility attributes generated by third-party plugins such as Marquee Addons and Premium Addons for Elementor may not fully conform to WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards. We are monitoring plugin updates and plan to address remaining issues by December 2026.
  • Screen reader testing: Full manual screen reader testing using assistive technologies such as NVDA and VoiceOver has not yet been completed across all pages of the website. We plan to complete this testing by December 2026.

We are actively working to address these limitations as part of our ongoing plan to improve accessibility.

Evaluation Approach

BMH Counseling evaluates the accessibility of our website using the following approaches:

  • Self-assessment conducted in accordance with WCAG 2.2 Level AA requirements
  • Automated accessibility evaluation using the WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool by WebAIM
  • Ongoing monitoring and regular accessibility reviews conducted annually
