In today’s episode David explores the importance of confidentiality when working as a Sport Psychologist when supporting clients. He discusses how various environments, such as cafes, public spaces, and formal meeting rooms, can impact a client's comfort and confidentiality. He also emphasizes the need for tailored settings, considering factors like social anxiety, neurodiversity, and the client's familiarity with the space. The episode also covers the ethical considerations in working with athletes, including transparency with coaches, the involvement of parents with young clients, and the use of well-known names. David underlines the significance of confidentiality in building trust and facilitating effective behaviour change development.

Key Learning Points:

· Reminding yourself who is your client when you work as a Sport Psychologist is important especially in organisational settings or when supporting children.

· Obtain written consent when using well-known names or client reviews for marketing purposes.

· Establish clear processes when working with clients in an organisational setting.

· When training to become a fully accredited sports psychologist the importance of maintaining ethical practices is covered in depth.
