This is a highly confidential service. I work with many high profile people and understand the need for absolute discretion and a safe place in which to be real. Confidentiality is limited only by circumstances in which the counselling relationship cannot legally or ethically maintain confidentiality. In such a situation, wherever possible every attempt will be made to communicate first with you the client, explaining the reasons for the need to pass on information and to whom this will be given. These exceptional circumstances are:
• Safeguarding Children: if information is disclosed that a child is at risk of significant harm there is a duty under the Children Act to pass on this information to Children's Services or the Police in order to do what is possible to see that child protected. This includes any illegal activities defined by the 2003 Sexual Offences Act.
