With the exception of certain specific exceptions described below, you have the absolute right to confidentiality in therapy. The psychologist can not communicate without your permission the content of the treatment, not even the fact that you are in therapy with us.

What data do we collect? We collect the following data: personal identification information and the records about your sessions (the interventions that have taken place, and the topics discussed during therapy).
How will we use your data? We collect your data so that we can process your request for services. Your data will be treated as confidential and under no circumstances will it be used for marketing purposes.
Each psychologist has a therapeutic approach, which comes (or derives) from a theoretical framework and an academic background that allow us to have the necessary criteria to decide the best applicable technique.
We use an eclectic approach within the Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy. That is, our theoretical framework is the so-called Cognitive-Behavioural psychology, according to which dysfunctional emotions or behaviours are believed to stem from dysfunctional thinking. By changing some thoughts, people can change how they feel and what they do. We also incorporate techniques of other therapies.
