The exceptions to an LPC disclosing communication, records, or identity of a client are specific and limited. Option A is incorrect because disclosing information solely to increase personal reputation is not a justifiable reason for breaking the confidentiality of a client. Option B is incorrect because arbitrary decisions by the LPC should not supersede the ethical duty to protect the client's confidentiality. Option C is incorrect because only disclosing information if required by the client limits the LPC's responsibility to protect vulnerable individuals from harm. The correct answer, D, is the only option that aligns with the LPC's ethical duty to report issues of abuse or neglect of minors, even if it means breaking confidentiality.
