Yes, therapy and counselling sessions are very much confidential. Confidentiality is one of the most important components in therapy, as successful therapy requires a high degree of trust.

With few exceptions, the highly sensitive material that is discussed between you and your therapist will not be shared with anyone else without your prior written confirmation.

For example, your therapist may share information with someone on your healthcare team (your Physician, Naturopath, Attorney), but by law will only be allowed to release this information after obtaining your written consent. In addition, therapists are legally mandated to make certain disclosures in cases where there is suspicion of harm to oneself, harm to others, or child abuse. All such disclosures will be discussed with you in advance.
