I'm a minor. can my doctor/therapist tell my parents i've self harmed?

Laws vary: Laws vary depending on where a patient or doctor are. In California, the law tells doctors not to reveal private information about sexual activities, drug abuse, and psychiatric symptoms... unless the minor patient has, is, or is planning to hurt himself or hurt others. Welcome to the real world, where nothing is in black and white: how much self-harm is deemed important enough to tell parents?
