What are the counselor's limits?
Unfortunately, I am not able to provide the following services to your child:
Testifying in court in child-custody matters
Providing intensive long-term counseling services for your child

Limits of Confidentiality
One of the most important parts of being a school counselor is being able to talk to students about personal things.  Most of what students tell me can be kept confidential, but I am required to violate that confidentiality if a student tells me one of the following things:
If he or she is planning to hurt himself or herself
If he or she is planning to hurt someone else
If a child is being abused or neglected
