Under certain conditions, mental health professionals have mandatory reporting requirements and must report certain events including client information to CPS or corresponding authorities. If a mental health professional has facts that support abuse, they must following the mandatory reporting requirement which includes the disclosure of enough client information for them to be identified and contacted.
Best of luck.
