Confidentiality & Privacy Policy
The law protects the relationship between a client and a psychotherapist, and information cannot be disclosed without written permission.
Exceptions include:
- Suspected child abuse or dependant adult or elder abuse, for which I am required by law to report this to the appropriate authorities immediately.?
- If a client is threatening serious bodily harm to another person/s, I must notify the police and inform the intended victim.?
- If a client intends to harm himself or herself, I will make every effort to enlist their cooperation in insuring their safety. If they do not cooperate, I will take further measures without their permission that are provided to me by law in order to ensure their safety.
I take your privacy very seriously. Here's a plain-English version of what I
do to honor your privacy:
First of all, I'll always keep your information 100% confidential. That
means I will never sell or share it with anyone else. Period.
