TalkWell Academy courses are not designed for crisis situations. The content below explains what TalkWell Academy is and is not.
1. This is not a therapy or counselling service
TalkWell Academy provides self-paced online educational courses on topics related to identity, self-awareness, emotional wellbeing, and personal development. These courses are created by a qualified psychotherapist and are informed by clinical experience and established psychological frameworks.
However, enrolling in or completing a course does not create a therapeutic, counselling, or clinical relationship between you and Kamarun Kalam or TalkWell Academy. You are not a client of TalkWell Academy. No duty of care applicable to clinical practice is assumed or created by your purchase or use of course content.
2. Content is educational, not clinical
All course content — including videos, written materials, reflective prompts, and exercises — is provided for general educational and personal-development purposes only. It is designed to support self-reflection and increased self-awareness.
Course content does not constitute and should not be treated as: psychological assessment, diagnosis of any mental health condition, clinical treatment or intervention, medical advice, or a substitute for any form of professional healthcare. If you have been diagnosed with a mental health condition, or if you are experiencing significant psychological distress, you should seek support from a qualified professional before, during, or instead of engaging with this course.
3. No guarantee of outcomes or results
Personal development is not a linear process and is deeply individual. TalkWell Academy makes no guarantees or representations about the specific outcomes or results you will experience from taking a course.
Course content may prompt reflection, insight, or emotional responses that vary significantly from person to person. The results of engaging with this course depend on many factors outside our control, including your personal history, current mental health, level of engagement, and readiness for the work.
4. Professional advice
Nothing on this website or in any course constitutes professional legal, financial, medical, psychiatric, or psychological advice. Information presented is for general educational purposes only.
If you need professional advice in any of these areas, we strongly encourage you to seek it from a qualified and regulated professional. For 1:1 psychotherapy, TalkWell Counselling Service provides qualified sessions — details at talkwellcounselling.co.uk.
5. Crisis situations and emergencies
TalkWell Academy's courses are not appropriate for people currently experiencing acute mental health crisis, active suicidal ideation, or severe psychological distress. If you are in this situation, please do not attempt to manage it alone through this course.
Reach out immediately to: Samaritans (116 123), Shout (text 85258), NHS 111, your GP, or 999 if you or someone else is in immediate danger.
TalkWell Academy is not a crisis service and cannot respond to emergency contacts. The course will be here when the timing is right.
6. External websites and resources
This website may link to external websites including TalkWell Counselling, BACP, NHS resources, and others. These links are provided for convenience and information. TalkWell Academy has no control over the content of those sites and accepts no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them.
7. Accuracy of website information
We make every effort to keep information on this site accurate and up to date. However, psychological research and therapeutic practice evolve continuously, and course content reflects Kamarun Kalam's training, clinical experience, and knowledge at the time of creation. We do not guarantee the completeness, accuracy, or currency of any information on this site or within course materials.
8. Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by UK law, TalkWell Academy and Kamarun Kalam accept no liability for:
