Privacy & Confidentiality

Your privacy is central to our care

We adhere to strict ethical standards and legal requirements to ensure that your personal information and discussions during sessions are kept confidential.

Confidentiality of Sessions

All counselling sessions are conducted in a private setting. Information shared will not be disclosed to third parties without your explicit consent, except where there is risk of harm to yourself or others, or as required by law.

Data Protection

We follow stringent data protection protocols to safeguard your personal information. Electronic records are secured, and only authorised personnel have access.

Informed Consent

Before beginning therapy, we provide detailed information about our confidentiality policies and obtain your informed consent.

Exceptions to Confidentiality

Confidentiality may be breached if there is a concern for your safety or the safety of others, or where there are legal obligations such as court orders.

Your Rights

You have the right to access your records, request amendments, and obtain a copy of our privacy policies. Please discuss any concerns with your counsellor.
