​

Unregulated Industry:
For legal purposes, you understand and accept that coaching is currently an unregulated industry in the United Kingdom. Despite the coaching sessions taking place within the UK or Europe, you understand that Vanessa Osborne, operates as a self-employed professional within her UK business. 


While Vanessa Osborne of the business holds various holistic and mindset-style diplomas, including a life coaching diploma, and demonstrates a commitment to continuous professional development, it is important to acknowledge that coaching is an unregulated profession.

Many skilled and reputable coaches operate successfully within this unregulated framework. 

 

Confidentiality and Exceptions:
You understand and acknowledge that your coach is committed to upholding confidentiality within the boundaries of the law. However, it is crucial to be aware that there are limited circumstances in which confidentiality may be breached. While such instances are exceptionally rare, it is necessary to clarify the exceptions to confidentiality.


In the event that you disclose information to your coach regarding illegal activity, abuse, neglect, or if you threaten to harm the coach, the business or others, your coach may face a difficult decision. Under such circumstances, your coach will carefully evaluate the risk associated with maintaining confidentiality and may determine that the potential harm outweighs the duty of confidentiality.

​

If your coach reasonably believes that maintaining confidentiality poses a risk of harm, your coach will exercise their best judgment and make a decision in best interest. This may involve disclosing pertinent information to appropriate emergency services or local government agencies to ensure the safety and well-being of all parties involved.

​

 

By proceeding with booking and engaging in coaching services, you acknowledge that you have fully read, understood, and agreed to the terms and conditions set forth in this disclaimer.
