Topic 8.4
How does confidentiality apply in therapy sessions for clients diagnosed with depressive disorders?
Therapists must keep client information private unless there's a risk of harm to the client or others.
Confidentiality means therapists can share information with other professionals for advice.
The therapist should always keep all information confidential, even in life-threatening situations.
Confidentiality isn't applicable if the client gives verbal permission, only written.
