OUR ETHICAL PRINCIPLES

Voluntary participation is a must during the course of psychological counseling. A person may start receiving services and end it whenever one wishes.

Psychological counseling period is handled in complete confidentiality.  All the information that is revealed by the client is protected and cannot be shared with the third parties unless permission is granted by the client.  However, in case harm may be in question to the client him/herself or another person, the client will be informed beforehand and the necessary people are contacted.  (You may view our Confidentiality Policy.)

At INVENTA PSYCHOLOGY, Psychotherapy is applied for conditions which are not defined as “illness”, in the international diagnosis and classification systems.  In case psychological illness is diagnosed, a referral is made to a psychiatrist and, if necessary, it is worked in cooperation with psychiatrists. All services provided in Inventa Psychology are structured and limited in accordance with the scope of the “Health Profession Law” in terms of the definition of profession, educational status, duties, powers and responsibilities determined by the “Turkish Psychological Association”. https://www.psikolog.org.tr/ozluk-haklari/Tanimlar-Komisyonu-Raporu-2011.pdf

In case the client cannot be helped due to professional limitation or inadequacy, the client may be referred to another professional or institution.
