Counselors will not disclose any of your information outside of CWS without your written consent. By law, exceptions with confidentiality may occur when there is a threat of harm to self or others, an indication of child or elder abuse, and/or a signed judge’s subpoena requesting information.

If you prefer to meet with one of the Personal Counselors specifically, you may also contact Susan Siokos directly via Oak Point email or phone. The Personal Counselors will do their best to accommodate your request, however, scheduling is based on availability.
