Confidentiality
All sessions are kept private and confidential between the client and therapist. The only exceptions to this rule are when the therapist feels there is a danger of the client harming themselves or is a potential threat to others. In certain circumstances the case of a client may be discussed with a supervisor, but details of the client are not disclosed. The notes are solely used for the purpose of maintaining therapeutic practice and not disclosed to any other parties other than the above mentioned.
Anti-discrimination policy / code of ethics
Healing Horizons does not discriminate in terms of age, gender, marital status, religion, race or political beliefs and follows strict guidelines set by the National Counselling Society and BACP (British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists). Copies of these terms and conditions may be found on their websites.
