Protecting Your Psychological Health Information

At Neuron & Rose, we stand firmly committed to the privacy, dignity, and rights of every individual and family we serve. In light of recent discussions surrounding the creation of an autism registry, we want to be absolutely clear: protecting our clients’ information is not just a legal obligation under HIPAA—it is a core ethical commitment we uphold without compromise.

We want you to know that we do not and will not share client information unless it is expressly authorized via a release of information that the client or guardian has to sign, with the exception of safety concerns. In situations where we need to disclose information related to safety concerns, only information that is relevant to the situation is disclosed. 

In case of a court order, we have healthcare lawyers in both Minnesota and California who would help us navigate the situation.  Our first priority will always be the well-being and confidentiality of our clients.

Moreover, we are deliberately minimizing the amount and specificity of the records we maintain. Our documentation strategy follows a "bare minimum" and “as vague as possible” approach—particularly with regard to group therapy notes. This is a deliberate measure to ensure that, even in the rare and extreme case of a court order, no sensitive or detailed discussion points from therapeutic sessions would be exposed.

In 2026, with the evolving landscape of data sharing and heightened scrutiny under HIPAA, we want our clients and community to know this: We will always put your privacy first. We are here to serve—not to surveil.

If you have any questions about your privacy rights or how we protect your information, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly.
