Questions
-
Yes, new clients are welcome to use the form in the Contact tab to get hold of me. From there we can organise a free 10-minute(ish) introductory phone call to arrange the first session.
-
Everything we discuss in session is confidential, unless I have immediate concerns about your safety, or the safety of someone else. In this case, I would need to report my concerns to the relevant support services. If possible, I will always discuss this with you first.
I receive regular clinical supervision from a registered social work colleague, which is a requirement to maintain my professional registration. I may discuss details of our sessions with my supervisor in order to provide best practice to you. I do not share identifying details with my supervisor.
Please note I keep brief notes summarising our sessions in a password-protected electronic health record. Legally, these notes must be made available to the courts if subpoenaed.

I know life can sometimes be unpredictable, but if you need to cancel or reschedule, please give as much notice as possible. Cancellation within 24 hours of the scheduled session incurs a fee of 80% of the full session amount.
