You're correct—the trial court in Jaffee v. Redmond initially denied privilege because the therapist held a master's, not doctorate, allowing negative inference that harmed Officer Redmond with a $545K verdict. But the Supreme Court reversed, establishing federal psychotherapist-patient privilege for licensed social workers, vacating the award. Legal protections evolve; transparency in cases like Bernal's is key without eroding rights.
