The law protects the relationship between a client and a psychotherapist, and information cannot be disclosed without written permission.
Exceptions include:
- Suspected child abuse or dependent adult or elder abuse, for which I am required by law to
report this to the appropriate authorities immediately.
- If a client is threatening serious bodily harm to another person/s, I must notify the police and
inform the intended victim. - If a client intends to harm himself or herself, I will make every effort to enlist their cooperation
in ensuring their safety. If they do not cooperate, I will take further measures without their
permission that are provided to me by law in order to ensure their safety.
