Terms & Conditions

 

The advice given through the use of this web site is given based solely on information provided by 

 

the user. Due to omitted information on the part of the individual presenting the information, both 

 

verbal and non-verbal, it may not be fully possible to assess the individual’s specific problem through 

 

this format.

 

 

The user agrees that the use of all, or part, of the service is entirely at the user’s own risk. Any 

 

actions, or lack of actions, taken by the recipient of such advice is done so solely by choice and 

 

responsibility of the recipient and is not the responsibility nor liability of the counsellor.

 

 

The provider’s services are provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind, either express or implied, 

 

including without limitation any warranty for information, services, counselling, uninterrupted 

 

access, or products and services provided through or in connection with this service. The method 

 

and process by which this advice and direction are given in no way would constitute an agreement 

 

or liability on the part of the provider and is acknowledged to be different in many ways than a one-

 

on-one counselling/consulting process that would happen if the parties were meeting in the same 

 

physical facility.

 

 

This service and the information contained in Counsellingyou.co.za is not intended as a substitute for 

 

seeking professional medical or psychological assistance and is not meant to be a substitute for in-

 

person counselling or treatment for suicidal ideation, or severe psychiatric problems.  This service is 

 

rather to facilitate individualised information by which decisions can be made.  

 

 

No assumption of responsibility is made, or given, and the party requesting such advice agrees not 

 

to hold the counsellor responsible or liable in any form or fashion, for such actions taken of their 

 

own accord.  

 

 

By submitting a question to Shannon Pluke, the on-line patient accepts this disclaimer and agrees to 

 

the process outlined in the body of the site. If this is agreeable, the on-line patient can proceed with 

 

the on-line therapy process.

 

 

Neither Shannon Pluke nor Counsellingyou.co.za, nor any other party involved in creating, producing 

 

or maintaining this site shall be liable for any direct, incidental, consequential, indirect or punitive 

 

damages arising out of your access to, or use of, this site or the information contained within.
