Confidentiality Statement

I am GDPR compliant and you can be assured any personal data is handled according to these guidelines. This means that personal information, including sensitive information about health, is collected under the legal basis of legitimate interest (GDPR, 2018) for the purposes of providing the services outlined above. You have a right to access the data, to request deletion, to correct inaccuracies, to complain to the ICO regarding data protection issues, and to be informed of data breaches within 72 hours. Personal information will not be used for marketing or profiling and will be kept for 6 years following the termination of therapy. Data will be kept securely on a password protected laptop that only I have access to and all notes are kept brief with no identifiable information on them and stored in a safe in my personal office or on my password protected laptop.

All sessions are held in confidence and your personal information will not be shared without consent. However, to provide you with a safe and effective treatment, I do request your consent to share information with my clinical supervisor (it is my responsibility to be supervised in order to ensure I am giving the best treatment I can) and your GP.

This represents the limits of information sharing other than in exceptional circumstances which includes when I am required to share information by court of law, where you disclose information that indicates risk to yourself or others or where you disclose a crime.
