I work in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework for Good Practice and all that you tell me is held in confidence, unless I have reason to believe that you or someone else are at risk of serious harm or I am compelled by a court of law. I have a professional duty to promote your safety and well-being. If I feel that either you or someone else is in danger or at risk of harm, I would first endeavour to discuss with you my decision for breaking confidentiality.

I will discuss confidentiality with you at our initial consultation so that you fully understand these limits.
