In my opinion, as long as you don't email a client an hour after her father dies whining about billing issues, you're ethical.
Oh, wait, I made this about me. :-)
Can you sit down and come up with a ratio of private/insurance pay clients to sliding scale clients to see what would pay your bills while still making therapy available to those without other resources? It may be that even at the beginning you could do a certain percentage and then perhaps that percentage could grow as you develop your clientele.
