The client’s guide to therapy rights

Strengthen your healing journey by understanding your rights in counselling sessions—from confidentiality to setting boundaries.

As awareness of mental health grows, more people are seeking mental health services. This process can feel like a big step—a blend of hope, uncertainty, and curiosity about what’s next. People’s expectations and goals for counselling vary, as do the techniques counsellors use. However, there is one thing that is true and universal to all counselling processes. That is the right clients hold. You, as clients, have rights you can exercise to feel safe, empowered, and fully engaged in your counselling journey.
