Confidentiality in Therapy

As a Registered Social Worker (RSW #2134) with the Manitoba College of Social Workers, I follow professional standards for privacy and confidentiality. What you share in therapy stays private, except in these rare cases:

• There is reason to believe you or someone else is at risk of serious harm

• A court order or legal requirement mandates disclosure

All records are stored securely using encrypted and password-protected systems. Communication is conducted through PHIA-compliant, confidential platforms.

I take data security seriously. Electronic records are encrypted, and all devices are password protected. While I take every reasonable precaution, please note that online communication always carries some risk.
