Center For Counseling and Consultation

Center For Counseling and Consultation Fostering growth, wellness, and success in the USG community. Perhaps the most important principle of counseling is that of confidentiality.

A client needs to feel that they can speak freely, without anyone else knowing what they said, in order for the therapeutic work to be effective. The Center is vigilant when it comes to ensuring that what is said in the counseling session remains confidential, both in maintaining secure records (electronic and paper) and by not releasing information to anyone, even that the client has been seen, unless it is at the direction of the client. There are, however, some circumstances where, as required by law, confidentiality must be breached by the counselor. These circumstances include:

when the client expresses an intention to imminently harm themselves and/or others
reasonable suspicion of the abuse or neglect of a child (or vulnerable adult)
court order
If the Center is legally bound to release information, the counselor will explain the situation during the session. Counseling records are not part of a student's University records and will not be released under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).
