Confidentiality

I believe strongly in protecting and maintaining the confidentiality of my clients.

Successful therapy requires a high degree of trust. Subject matter is completely confidential*. The best therapists always have a strong moral commitment to protecting the anonymity of their clients.

In the province of Quebec, licensed psychotherapists, who are members of a professional order, are legally obligated to protect your confidentiality in their psychotherapy practices.

*The exceptions to licensed psychotherapist confidentiality are:

  • Minors under 14 require parental consent
  • Threats of serious harm to self or others
  • Abuse of a child
  • Ordered by a judge as part of a criminal proceeding

If you're concerned about your rights and your therapist's responsibilities visit the Canadian Psychological Association page on Federal Privacy Legislation.

Please contact me with any questions or concerns.
