Community Agreement
This community is a shared professional space. The agreements below are here to support safety, respect, and meaningful engagement for everyone.
By being part of this community, you agree to the following:
1. Respect and Professionalism
Please engage with others respectfully and thoughtfully. Differences in experience, training, and perspective are welcome. Disagreement is okay; disrespect is not.
This is a professional space, and we ask that communication reflects the standards expected within counselling and helping professions.
2. Confidentiality
Do not share identifiable information about clients, colleagues, placements, or training providers.
If you reference practice experiences, please keep them general and anonymised. What is shared in this community should stay within the community.
3. Boundaries
This community is:
- Not therapy
- Not supervision
- Not a crisis support service
Please do not use the space to seek or provide therapy, supervision, diagnosis, or risk management. If you are in distress or need urgent support, please contact appropriate professional services for your area.
4. Sharing and Participation
You are never required to share personal experiences or participate publicly.
Engage in ways that feel appropriate for you — whether that’s posting, commenting, attending workshops, or quietly observing.
5. Advice and Problem-Solving
Please avoid giving directive advice or telling others what they should do in their personal or professional lives.
This community values reflection, curiosity, and exploration over instruction or fixing.
6. Inclusivity
This is an inclusive space. Discrimination, harassment, or oppressive language will not be tolerated.
We aim to create an environment where all members feel respected and able to participate safely.
7. Responsibility and Care
Take responsibility for your own learning, boundaries, and well-being while engaging in this space.
If something shared here raises concerns for you, we encourage you to seek appropriate professional support, for your area, outside of the community.
8. Moderation
Moderators may intervene if content or behaviour does not align with these agreements, in order to protect the integrity of the community.
Closing
These agreements are not about restriction, but about creating a space that reflects the values of counselling: respect, responsibility, and care for self and others.
This is a working document, so at any point it can be revised, reviewed and adapted appropriately.
Thank you for being part of this community.
