- Confidentiality is assured for all clients, as dictated by the Australian Psychology Association Code of Ethics.
- If you have been referred by a medical practitioner your written consent is obtained to liaise with that professional. If you require information to be sent and/or received to any other professionals/people your written consent is also acquired.
