The SPHERE Project respects your right to privacy online. This website does not collect any identifiable information except in the voluntary 'enrolment form' section. All information collected from this online enrolment form is held by the SPHERE Project in strict confidence.

The SPHERE Project is an educational program for general practitioners. As a result, we are not able to provide clinical advice or services. The contents of all SPHERE materials have been prepared to assist general practitioners to treat patients with depression and/or anxiety using pharmacological and/or non-pharmacological approaches. They are not intended to be used as self-treatment programs. All information is intended as a guide only, for general practitioners to be used with patients, and will be changed in response to future medical and scientific advances. The disease management programs should be used in association with a medical practitioner. Responsibility for treatment decisions, especially drug prescribing, resides with the individual doctor. Relevant information should be explained and clarified by the doctor. The views expressed within the materials are those of the authors and are not those of any of the agencies, departments, pharmaceutical companies or funding bodies which have provided support for the distribution of SPHERE materials.
