It's a wild digital world out there!
Our data is being collected and sold by almost every app we download and every online quiz we take to personalise or access a digital service.
Our phones and echo dots are listening and there can even be screen overlays observing our phone activity! 
Having completed an in depth specialist training in Online Therapy - here are some of the ways I am keeping your data safe when you choose to contact me or work with me online. 
In addition to this - Not for safety but for authenticity - I write my own emails, blog posts, social media posts - everything. Even my email signature is written by me at the end of every email! - Could Chat GPT save me time? Could I send out standardised emails? Sure - But will you get a sense of authenticity from that? I think not. So when you read "Warmest wishes, Caroline" at the end of my email, - I wrote that AND meant that - every time. And in this day and age our safety but also our authenticity is so important.
Whether you choose Argyll Therapy or any other therapist - never be worried to ask questions about your how your data is managed and how technology is used in the counselling environment. You want to work with someone who is prepared and confident that they have safeguarded your confidentiality every way possible. And you want someone who is reacting to you in real time - no copying and pasting - lets keep it real! If you'd like to book in for online sessions knowing you're in safe and very human hands - you can contact me anytime by visiting...
Or by emailing

With warmest wishes,
