What We Do

Confidentiality

We adhere to professional, legal, and ethical guidelines established by the State of Florida, Professional organizations and federal laws.

Your counseling information will not be disclosed to anyone outside the Center's professional staff and/or the psychiatric staff of the Student Health Services without your written permission.

However, Florida law establishes that confidentiality does not apply under the following circumstances:

• You are considered at immediate risk for harming yourself
• You are considered at immediate risk for harming others
• Child abuse
• Abuse of elderly persons or persons with disabilities
• A court order

Additional limits to confidentiality apply for students under the age of 18.
