By submitting your answer, you acknowledge and agree that the content may be stored, analyzed, and used to improve services, conduct research, or generate insights. No personally identifiable information will be collected or shared without your explicit consent.
The agency is required to obtain your informed written consent before releasing or obtaining any information except where authorized by legislation or directed by the courts. These exceptions are as follows:
1. In certain limited circumstances your counsellor/therapist is required by law to disclose client information and must comply with these mandatory obligations. These circumstances include but are not limited to significant concern about the safety of a child (physical or sexual safety) or significant emotional harm (which includes situations and/or behaviours that seriously interfere with a child's development or functioning); files being subpoenaed; search warrants.
2. In addition, it is a condition of the counselling relationship that your counsellor/therapist will release what would otherwise be confidential information if there is reason to believe that you represent a significant and immediate threat of death or serious injury to yourself or others. Resolve Counselling will take whatever steps necessary to avert danger to a client or others. The threat of harm will always take priority over confidentiality. Resolve Counselling has adopted this policy for the welfare of our clients, staff and the community at large.
Yes, I am consenting to counselling services (telephone, video, and/or in-person), understand that limitations described above apply to any direct or indirect information acquired through virtual contacts (telephone, email) and am providing my email address to Resolve Counselling.
I understand that pressing submit will forward this information to the intake department.
