FAQs
I have extended health benefits, am I covered with you?
If you have extended health benefits, check with your insurance provider or employer to determine if you are covered for services provided by a Registered Clinical Counsellor. My registration number with BCACC is #3788.
What is confidentiality?
Confidentiality and privacy means that everything you share with me is held in the strictest of confidence. I respect your privacy and will not share information about you or your family unless it falls within the limitations of confidentiality:
If there is reason to believe that clients may cause harm to themselves or others, I must inform the appropriate people that can protect that person.
If there is reason to suspect that a child, elderly person, or person with a disability is at risk of harm, I must report this to either the Ministry of Children and Family Development or the appropriate law enforcement. Protection concerns may involve maltreatment, including neglect or emotional, physical, or sexual abuse.
Files will be shared when a court ordered subpoena requests my appearance in a Court of Law or if investigative records are required by the law.
