According to Meyer & Weaver (2019), "a disclosure by a client that she or he previously killed someone may not be sufficient cause for breach, as the crime has already been committed and the victim cannot be helped" (Meyer & Weaver, 2019, p. 76). So, generally speaking, if a client admits that they committed a crime in the pastbe it murder, assault, prostitution, etc.the counselor cannot breach confidentiality unless there is a current imminent threat to themselves or another person.

What are the other reasons that counselors are not required to report disclosure of past crimes?
