I further understand that services provided are generally short-term (6 appointments), although longer-term services are available. SSC Student Support Services counselors will utilize any, all, or a combination of customary procedures and consultation practices employed in behavioral health care including health assessment and some counseling therapy techniques.

Initial(Required)

I understand that everything discussed with my counselor will be kept confidential with a few exceptions. I further understand that disclosure is mandated ethically and legally by the Ohio Counselor, Social Worker, and Marriage and Family Therapist (OCSWMFT) Board and/or the Ohio Revised Code in the following cases: 1) it is mandated by court order 2) suspected child/elder abuse and/or neglect, and 3) there is an expressed or significant concern of imminent risk of physically harming myself, another identified person, or an identified structure.

The purpose of supervision is to provide the highest quality of care for me and the supervisor is bound to the same laws of confidentiality. I also understand that in order to ensure the best possible care, consultation with other counseling professionals and supervisors is common during the counseling process and that during such consultation efforts are made to protect my identity.
