With written consent from the client or legal guardian if the client is under the age of 18, your therapist may disclose information information to others. If during the course of therapy there are threats of harm towards oneself or someone else, then your therapist has the right to disclose that information without the client's or legal guardian's consent. If there is suspected abuse or neglect, by law your therapist has to report that to the Department of Social Services.
