Anyone using our services can expect that we will keep their private information confidential.  We will not give anyone any information about you, including your contact details, without your permission.

If you have been referred to us by another professional, such as a GP or Social Worker, we will let them know that we have seen you, but not what we have discussed.

There are limited circumstances where we may need to share your information – these are explained in the Client Confidentiality Agreement you will be asked to sign, and will be discussed with you at your first meeting.
