confidentiality

​All counselling sessions are confidential in accordance with the Code of Ethics of the Irish Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP).  There are however some limits to confidentiality.  These include:
A disclosure of abuse involving a minor (under 18 years) or if any other child protection issue emerges.  This can include if a child has been or is being harmed, or is at risk of being harmed.
Or, in the counsellors assessment, if the client is a danger to self or others or the counsellor.
 
Where it is considered necessary to break confidentiality, the counsellor will ideally do this with the full knowledge of the client.  Breaking confidentiality usually means that the counsellor will anonymously discuss the issue with his supervisor to agree a way forward.
