Information students share with the Counselor is confidential. The student's right to privacy is guarded as much as permitted by law, ethics, and school rules.  All meetings held with the Counselor will remain confidential unless the student gives permission to share information with related parties. We respect the rights of confidentiality of personal information disclosed during the course of conversation between ourselves and students, except in the following cases:

Exceptions to Confidentiality

  • If there is a risk of imminent harm to your student or another person (e.g., a serious intent to commit suicide or homicide), counselors have a legal and ethical duty to protect life. Counselors may contact police and psychiatric hospitalization services to protect your student and others from suicidal or homicidal intent. Please note that counselors will collaborate with your student to implement safety plans other than police intervention or psychiatric hospitalization if possible. Police intervention and psychiatric hospitalization are used only when absolutely necessary. 
  • If counselors are provided evidence that a child, elderly person, cognitively disabled, or physically disabled person is being abused or neglected, it will be reported to the appropriate authorities. 
  • Counselors must release information when a court of law orders them to do so.
  • Counselors take steps to ensure that the information released to a court of law is absolutely necessary for the legal process, and whenever possible, avoid releasing information that a client deems personally damaging.  
  • If your student experiences a medical crisis while at Student Counseling Services, counselors may provide necessary medical information (e.g., about medications) to medical personnel as appropriate for your student's safety.
