So here are the laws

Mental Health Professionals? Duty to Warn: 50 state table

Where I live and in a lot of states they are required by law, pdocs therpists and others to report if you are a danger to yourself or others they are forced to break confidentiality they have no choice in the matter at all. Apparently in Texas it is allowed but not mandatory so really the choice was hers---she probably did it because she wanted to make sure she saw you again...
