As a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I am bound by their Ethical Framework. This outlines my personal and professional responsibilities and commitments to you as a client.
The core principles of this framework are:
- Being trustworthy: honouring the trust placed in the practitioner
- Autonomy: respect for the client’s right to be self-governing
- Beneficence: a commitment to promoting the client’s wellbeing
- Non-maleficence: a commitment to avoiding harm to the client
- Justice: the fair and impartial treatment of all clients and the provision of adequate services
- Self-respect: fostering the practitioner’s self-knowledge, integrity and care for self
I have committed to working in a fair, non-judgmental, empathetic way that places client autonomy and well-being at the forefront of everything that I do.
