Answer :
Final answer:
Confidentiality must be maintained by practitioners except in situations involving imminent danger, child or elder abuse, or Tarasoff duty. So the correct option is A) Imminent danger to self or others
Explanation:
Confidentiality must be maintained by practitioners unless specific situations arise that require breaching it, such as when there is imminent danger to self or others, child or elder abuse, or under Tarasoff duty. The Tarasoff v. the Board of Regents of the University of California ruling established that therapists have a legal and ethical obligation to both their clients and society, including a duty to warn potential victims in certain circumstances.
