Terms and conditions

Counselling is a deliberately undertaken activity and relationship requiring your commitment as well as that of your counsellor. As such, please read carefully the following terms and conditions which lay out what we expect from you and what you can expect from us in relation to your time in the service. By ticking the box below you agree to these terms and conditions.

All counsellors at the Rotherham and Barnsley Mind counselling service work within the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy's (BACP) Ethical Framework for Good Practice. Copies are available on request or directly from BACP. Counsellors receive regular clinical supervision of their work.

Copies of Rotherham and Barnsley Mind's policies on confidentiality, safeguarding children and safeguarding adults are available on request.

Rotherham and Barnsley Mind will not tolerate any form of abuse, disrespect or aggravations towards our counsellors, and we reserve the right to discontinue your appointments with immediate effect if this is not respected.

If we suspect you to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs when presenting for an appointment then the appointment will not go ahead.

The service reserves the right to decline a referral or to terminate therapy if we feel it is likely to impact negatively on the wellbeing of either the client or therapist. We will always seek to discuss this with clients with the aim of identifying appropriate alternative support in these instances, on a case by case basis.

Session attendance

Counselling sessions usually take place weekly and last for 50 minutes. If you arrive late to a session, the session will still finish at the normal time or the counsellor can decide not to go ahead with it at all.

For counselling to be effective you need to make a serious commitment to attending sessions. As such, we operate the following policy with regard to missed sessions:

If you need to re-arrange your appointment this must be done with no less than 24 hours’ notice or your session will still be chargeable. If you cannot attend a session providing 24 hours’ notice is given this will not be counted towards your missed session count.
If you have two missed sessions then your therapy will be discontinued.
The service does make allowance for planned breaks in the work, as long as these are planned and agreed in advance within the previous sessions.
You will be charged your normal fee for missed sessions (except in cases of genuine emergency or planned breaks).

If you anticipate having trouble attending your appointments, or if your regular appointment time becomes inconvenient (due to work or childcare commitments, for example) please discuss this with us as soon as possible and we may be able to work around it or make alternative arrangements.

Assessment

You will have an assessment prior to your counselling appointments, which are charged at a fixed fee of £25. This will give you an opportunity to:

discuss how many appointments you require/are entitled to.
tell us any preferences you have about your counsellor.
update us on your availability for your counselling appointments.

Please note that we can only run assessments at certain times. You will be expected to attend within working hours (09.00-17.00) and should be prepared to take time off work (as a one-off) to attend if necessary.

Confidentiality

The counselling process is bound by rules of confidentiality. This means that what you say in therapy is treated as confidential to your therapist within the counselling practice. Counselling practice includes discussing clinical aspects of your work together within clinical supervision sessions and liaising with the counselling service Team Lead. All information held by the service is in accordance with the Data Protection Act 2018.
