Confidentiality & Privacy Policy

The law protects the relationship between a client and a psychotherapist, and information cannot be disclosed without our written permission. However, there are a few exceptions that you should be aware of:

• Suspected child abuse (past or present) or neglect.
• Evidence of elder abuse.
• Suspected possession of child pornography.
• If you are in danger of seriously hurting yourself or someone else.
• A court order or subpoena of information or records related to mental health.

Your confidentiality is sacred to me. If one of these situations arises, I will make my best effort to keep your information safe and, if it is at all possible, will discuss with you what action may need to be taken.
