Phone numbers: I retain your phone numbers on my phone for contact concerning appointments and information. I will retain your phone number for up to six months after our working agreement ends unless we agree otherwise. 

Email details: I will delete any emails on a regular basis. Or at the end of our working relationship as appropriate. If there has been other material exchanged by email, you can advise me, or we can decide together what to do with this. 

 I use social media to share information about mental health and wellbeing. Please note if you are a client, I will not engage in conversations with you on social media. This is to protect your privacy as well as our therapeutic work.

Client or supervision, records and notes: You have the right to see any information I hold about you. You can ask me to change any information that I hold about you that is incorrect. You also have the right to ask me to delete any information that I hold about you, except that which I have a legal or professional obligation to keep, for example, for tax purposes and for professional insurance requirements for my practice. Personal information held is stored securely and will be shredded five years after our last appointment in compliance with BACP directives. 

I do not record our sessions unless agreed and I ask you to do the same.
