Confidentiality & Its Limits

Your privacy is very important to me. What you share in therapy sessions is confidential, which means I will not share it with others without your written permission. There are, however, some legal and ethical exceptions where I may be required to break confidentiality:

Risk of Harm to Self or Others
- If you are at serious risk of harming yourself, I may need to take steps to ensure your safety.
- If you express intent to harm another person, I am required to take protective actions, which may include notifying the potential victim and law enforcement.
Abuse or Neglect
- I am legally required to report suspected child abuse or neglect.
- I may also be required to report abuse of vulnerable adults or elders.
Court Orders or Legal Proceedings
- If ordered by a court, I may be required to release relevant information.
Supervision or Consultation
- To provide the best possible care, I may consult with professional colleagues. In these cases, I do not share identifying information and every effort is made to protect your privacy.

Outside of these circumstances, your information is not shared without your consent.
