Why would you be scared for them to know?

Thanks Petra5ed, that makes sense. Do you know if it would just show the name of the therapist (though I'm guessing it would also show their credentials), or would it say something like "individual therapist"? Though I suppose if there were a ton of claims for one doctor, my parents would investigate that either way.
I would be scared for them to know because I am just so private in my life. I don't want them to or feel that they deserve to know private things about me like that, unfortunately. My dad makes me feel terrible about myself for small glimpses of my issues that he sees. I try my best to cover up any sign of anything negative in my life to avoid his comments. If they knew I was in therapy, I couldn't cover it up and I feel like it would just give him ammunition.
