Risks and Limitations

There are few risks associated with a consultation, unless discussing a difficult case or topic in which case you could become distressed due to vicarious trauma. In booking a consultation, it is assumed that you accept this risk and that you are familiar with discussing difficult cases/topics as a part of your work. The limitations of consultation are that it provides only guidance based on research, it acknowledges the diversity of that research base, and cannot promise to solve all problems much like therapy cannot guarantee to heal all trauma. In booking a consultation, it is assumed that you accept that this consultation will provide you with information based on Dr. Jem Tosh's experience and expertise, that you consider her expertise appropriate for your query, that there are different perspectives available, and that it is ultimately your decision on whether or not to use the information Dr. Jem Tosh gives you.
