I'm in a hurry so I'm sorry but I haven't read all the replies. From my research as a psych student I think it is considered bad practice to divulge any of what happens in a session. The ONLY four exceptions allowed in the UK are

1. When ordered to by a court of law
2. If you know/suspect a crime has been committed
3. If you think the patient/others are physically at risk of harm
4. In your own counselling session.

Since 1,2, and 4 aren't really a problem, it would only be 3 you may have a problem with. Speak to your councellor before you get too deep into a conversation and they should clarify their personal position, and keep you right.

Remember, that from the counsellors point of view, they will want to maintain your trust, as its vital to a healthy and productive working relationship.

Good luck
