The statute of limitations in sexual misconduct actions is two (2) years from the date the alleged injury occurred or is discovered, whichever is later. For purposes of this section, discovery of the alleged injury occurs after therapy ends, the victim is no longer emotionally dependent upon the therapist, and the patient knew or should have known that sexual misconduct by a therapist is unprofessional and harmful to the patient.
Except as provided in subsection (c), no such action shall be brought more than three (3) years after the date of the last communication of any kind between the therapist and the patient.
Where the sexual misconduct involves a minor, the statute of limitations shall be one (1) year after the minor's eighteenth birthday, except that where subsection (a) or (b) would provide for a longer time in which to bring a claim, the provision that provides the longest time in which to bring a claim applies.
