It is unethical for trainee counsellors to work with actively suicidal clients. If the client you wish to refer is currently suicidal, you will need to seek support through our sister company, Ratcliffe Therapeutic Counselling, to work with qualified counsellors.
The content of your counselling sessions is confidential. The only limits to confidentiality are if you were to inform us of an imminent risk to your life or another or alert us to a serious crime, in which case the counsellor must inform the safeguarding officer. Please confirm if you agree to our confidentiality rules.
In Ratcliffe & Brown CIC, our counsellor team consists of trainee counsellors in their last or second-to-last year of qualification. They are supervised and supported by qualified counsellors and clinical supervisors. Please confirm if you agree to work with our trainee counsellor team.
If you wish to work only with a qualified counsellor, please see the link below to our sister company, Ratcliffe Therapeutic Counselling. The team of qualified counsellors and specialists can further support your complex journey. Prices are available to view on the website.
All your information is stored securely in line with GDPR and kept for five years after completing your counselling journey with us. After this point, it is confidentially deleted.
