The Counseling Center recognizes the need for students to have a safe and confidential environment to feel comfortable sharing personal information; therefore, no information is shared or exchanged without written consent by the student. Exceptions to the confidentiality policy include state and license mandated law and ethics: if the student reports risk of danger to self or others, if there is suspicion of child or elder abuse, or there is a request made by written subpoena or court order. Counselors may obtain necessary and confidential consultation or supervision with other mental health professionals to ensure quality of care. If you have any additional questions or want to learn more about confidentiality, please contact the Counseling Center.  All counselors will discuss confidentiality when students are seen for the first appointment.
