privacy & ethics
At unblock therapy, we are committed to making you feel comfortable, calm and completely at ease with the process around counselling and your session in the clinic.
​
Based out of the Bardon Counselling & Natural Therapy Centre, this clinic environment has been designed with the clients' needs in mind and we aim to make it as pleasant as possible for you. Unblock therapy is conscious about making every person feel inclusive and welcome from the time you walk through the door.

Having completed a degree in social work, Nicky has an affiliation with the Australian Association of Social Workers (the peak professional body representing social workers in Australia). As part of being a member of the AASW, there are privacy and ethical documents that have been completed as a standard guideline for the profession.

Because our official documents are too large to attach to the website, there have been copies made that are available for you to read at your convenience in the clinic. If you need any clarifications on anything, please ask us at your session.
