Statement of Confidentiality

It is important to me that you fully understand the confidential nature of our counselling relationship. I will not release your name or any information about you or your counselling to anyone without your informed, voluntary, written consent, except under one of the circumstances below.

• Where I am required by law to disclose confidential information where there is suspicion of child abuse.
• Where I am required by law to disclose confidential information when served with a court order.
• Where you may pose a risk of serious injury to yourself.
• Where you may pose a risk of serious injury to others.

Statement of Disclaimer

Telephone counselling is not suitable for someone who is emotionally unstable or for addressing psychiatric conditions such as severe depression, bipolar disorder, or an eating disorder.

It is not suitable for someone in a critical situation, a crisis, or in need of suicide prevention, or who deem themselves or others to be in danger of any kind. You are directed to go to the nearest hospital or may call 911 for emergency response if this is your critical situation.

While known to be effective in many cases, phone counselling is not always a replacement for in person counselling. Therefore, I, Allan Findlay, cannot be held responsible for any actions of clients before, during, or after receiving telephone counselling services. I am not responsible for any client liabilities that may occur. By agreeing to pay for my phone counselling services, each client holds Allan Findlay harmless.

I have read the Statement of Confidentiality and Statement of Disclaimer above. I meet the conditions for suitability for Phone Counselling and will not hold Allan Findlay responsible for my actions before, during or after the phone counselling session.
