You are OK. I made a search for a typical Ohio privacy policy in a relationship between a client and a psychotherapist and here is what comes up:

"
Confidentiality & Privacy Policy

The law protects the relationship between a client and a psychotherapist, and information cannot be disclosed without written permission.

Exceptions include:

Suspected child abuse or dependant adult or elder abuse, for which I am required by law to report this to the appropriate authorities immediately.
If a client is threatening serious bodily harm to another person/s, I must notify the police and inform the intended victim.
If a client intends to harm himself or herself, I will make every effort to enlist their cooperation in insuring their safety. If they do not cooperate, I will take further measures without their permission that are provided to me by law in order to ensure their safety.

Privacy Policy: Therapy Privacy Policy | Toledo OH

As you see, the exceptions do not include illegal money-making.
Thanks for this!
