Confidentiality and safeguarding

All sessions are confidential and I would ask you to read my confidentiality statement. In addition you will need to sign a contract of agreement if you decide to take up sessions. I will go through this with you and ask you to sign both at our first session together.

If I am worried about your safety as a consequence of either your own actions or those of someone else, I would want to help you to find the best way to keep yourself safe.
