Confidentiality & Privacy Policy

Communications from those inquiring about services or from existing clients are confidential within the limits required or allowed by federal and/or Tennessee state law .

The  law protects the relationship between a client and a psychotherapist,  and information cannot be disclosed without written permission. However,  there are several exceptions to confidentiality. 

Examples of 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.
