Confidentiality

At The Wellness Center, as healthcare providers, we protect your confidentiality. We understand that you will need to be open about private parts of your life in order for us to help you. What you tell us is protected health information and we cannot disclose it to those outside our team without your consent. Your counselor will review with you the rare legal exceptions to this when you first meet and would be happy to revisit that conversation any time you have a question. Please also feel free to call our office if you have any questions about confidentiality. If you are not yet 18, please speak with your counselor about how parental access to medical records works before and after your 18th birthday.
