What is confidentiality?

Confidentiality is keeping information discussed between the student and the school counselor (or the parent and the counselor) private. Confidentiality is vital to the student-counselor relationship.

Are there times when the school counselor will break confidentiality?

Yes, there are certain instances when the school counselor is required to report confidential information, such as:

When a student reports someone is hurting them
When a student reports they are hurting someone else
When a student reports they are hurting themselves
With the student’s permission (often something that is uncomfortable for the student but useful for a parent or teacher to know)
