Under direction from our professional regulating body British & Irish Association for Behavioural And Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP&IABCP), and in accordance with current government guidance, we have now resumed full services, including face to face treatment sessions to clients who have no Coronavirus symptoms and who are in low risk categories.
As we learn to live with Coronavirus and adapt to the risks it may pose to some people, the health and safety of both clients and therapists remains paramount in delivery of our services, therefore we continue to encourage the following Coronavirus mitigation measures to help us maintain a safe and comfortable working environment:
- Clients are asked to arrive for their appointment alone and in time.
- Hand sanitiser is available for client use.
- Our seats are placed 2.5 metres.
- All surfaces are sanitised between each appointment, the treatment room is ventilated as much as possible and sprayed with sanitising solution between appointments.
- Clients are very welcome to wear a face mask or visor but are not required to do so.
- Therapists will not routinely wear a face mask or visor but are happy to do so should a client request it.
- All physical contact between therapist and client is discouraged.
- To reduce cash handling, clients are asked to bring the correct fee in cash or cheque or to arrange to pay by bank transfer.
- We ask that clients act responsibly and that they do not attend appointments if they, or anyone in their household or close social network are symptomatic.
