Terms of use

Who this space is for

The Space is a professional community for practitioners who work with groups. Membership is reviewed individually, and is intended for people with relevant professional training. It is not a space for clients, for the general public, or for promotional activity.

Confidentiality comes first

Never post anything that could identify a client: no names, no unusual biographical detail, no images. Clinical material should be described only to the extent needed for the professional question, and in a form that cannot be traced back to a person. Posts that appear to contain identifying details are flagged automatically for review.

What you write stays visible to members

Posts and replies are visible to anyone who opens the site, including people who are not members. Write with that in mind. You are responsible for what you publish.

Tone

Disagreement is welcome; contempt is not. Colleagues here come from different countries, traditions and training routes. Assume good faith, and write as you would speak in a professional meeting.

Not clinical or legal advice

Responses in this community are collegial reflections, not supervision, clinical direction, or legal advice. Clinical responsibility for your work remains yours.

Moderation

Any member can report a post or a reply. The community team may hide content or suspend a membership where these terms are not respected. You can ask for your account to be removed at any time by replying to any email you receive from us.
