If psychologists identify warning behaviors, they can share the safety concerns with the patient and explore the possibility of voluntary hospitalization. If a patient is a danger to themselves or others but does not agree to this, then psychologists are usually required to break patient confidentiality and pursue involuntary hospitalization, said Gibson.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
