As a therapist your privacy is very important to me. Anything you tell me will be treated confidentially, and I will not reveal it to another party without your consent, unless I am legally obliged to. I have to break confidentiality if I believe a child is in danger, or to prevent an act of terrorism. Confidentiality is something my professional body takes very seriously and I keep to their ethical standards.
I have professional supervision, where I may discuss how I am working with you. My supervisor will not know who you are and is also ethically bound by confidentiality.
I comply with the General Data Protection Regulation. What this means is that any information I hold on you is stored securely. I keep basic personal details electronically which are password protected. Any notes I make do not include your name or any details that could identify you, and are kept securely.
If you want to know more please ask.
