Ethical Responsibilities
You can be assured that I will respect your privacy and will treat everything we discuss confidentially. I will obtain your informed consent before we start working together. As a registered psychologist, I am also expected to follow the Code of Ethics adopted by members of the New Zealand Psychological Society, members of the NZ College of Clinical Psychologists, and the New Zealand Psychologists Board. The code is based around these principles:
- Respect for the dignity of persons and peoples
- Responsible caring
- Integrity in relationships
- Social justice and responsibility to society
Cancellation Policy
Because I prepare for appointments and set aside time for them, I do have to charge you the full session fee if you miss an appointment without giving me at least 24 hours’ notice. If you are late for an appointment, we will meet for the remaining appointment time and you will be required to pay the full session fee.
