When you use the contact form, I collect the details you choose to give me: your name, email address, phone number (optional), session preference and your message.
Only to respond to your enquiry and, if you wish, to arrange an initial consultation. The lawful basis is your consent and steps taken at your request before entering into an agreement.
Form messages are delivered to me by Formspree, a third-party form service, and then stored securely in my email. I do not sell or share your details with anyone else, and I do not use them for marketing.
If we don’t go on to work together, I delete enquiry details within [6 months]. If we do, your information is kept in line with my clinical record-keeping obligations, which I will explain at the start of therapy.
