Some states recognize a legal privilege as to communications between counselor and patient where psychotherapy is involved, but such a privilege probably would not apply to statements made in a group. If there's no privilege involved, the counselor is free to report the patient's statements to law enforcement if he sees fit to do so. However, the counselor is under no legal obligation to report the patient's statements to anyone. Your question, of course, is not what the counselor is legally allowed to do, but rather, what he or she should do. I think the decision must depend on the circumstances and that the counselor should put professional concerns in the forefront.
