Privacy & Policy

Our Confidentiality & Privacy Policy Agreement
Texas law protects the relationship between a client and a psychotherapist, and information cannot be disclosed without written permission.

Exceptions include: 

  • Suspected abuse of a child, dependent, or older adult
  • If you are at imminent risk of inflicting serious harm to yourself or another person(s)
  • If you disclose the sexual misconduct of a physician or therapist
  • If you file a complaint with a licensing board or in cases of a malpractice suit, records will be released to the Board and/or legal counsel.
  • If you disclose involvement in, or associations with, terrorist activities
  • If information is requested by a judge via court order

For each of the above exceptions, your therapist is required by law or by governing authorities to contact the proper authorities immediately. Medical, law enforcement, and/or governmental agencies may be notified with or without your consent.

If a client intends to harm himself or herself, your therapist will make every effort to enlist cooperation in ensuring the client's safety. If a client does not cooperate, your therapist will take further measures without the client's permission as provided by law in order to ensure the client's safety.
