I recall my old T telling me that they would maintain my privacy because I was an adult, so I think it's the same as the US system. They'd have to break confidentiality if I were a threat to myself or the people around me.
But that sucks because how else am I supposed to get help for self harm? My self harm isn't too severe, but I feel like them potentially telling my parents would be far more harmful to me.
