Hello & Welcome, Noonehearsmecry.
I'm guessing: your counsellor called your parents in compliance with some directive or guidance established for her by the school. Especially in view of how bad things are getting, you have a right to ask her why she called your parents. Did she act according to an established protocol? What are the dictates of that protocol or guidance? You can even tell her you are now reluctant to discuss all you feel necessary with her due to the possible requirement to inform your parents.

By "next year" do you mean the next school year or 2014? A counsellor or therapist outside the school might be working with a different set of confidentiality requirements, but that is something you should ask them directly. You have a right to know.
Please try not to be intimidated by these counsellors. They can only be of help if they get the right information, and if you do not feel free to offer that information then there's a basic contradiction in the therapeutic arrangement.
Again, welcome to PsychCentral.
