I discuss my work on a regular basis with a supervisor in order to ensure that I am giving the best possible quality of service to my clients. Your identity would not be disclosed.
If I thought there was a risk of harm to yourself, or others I would notify either your doctor, and/or next of kin and/or relevant authority. If child protection concerns arose I would notify the relevant authorities.
In the unlikely event of being subpoenaed I would have to give evidence in court.
