- Case Study #5
- Prompt: Alex, a 15-year-old high school student, has been experiencing anxiety and depression since his parents’ contentious divorce two years ago. He sought counseling on his own initiative, wanting a safe space to discuss his feelings without fear of escalating the conflict between his parents, who have joint legal custody but a strained relationship. Alex has been seeing Ms. Taylor, a licensed professional counselor, for individual therapy sessions over the past six months. He has been open and honest during sessions, expressing that the constant tension between his parents is a significant source of his distress. He specifically requested that his parents not be informed of the details of his therapy, fearing it would worsen the conflict and cause further emotional harm.Recently, his mother has wanted to hire a lawyer to see if she could get more child support from Alex’s father. She is hoping to show Alex’s notes to the judge in the hopes that something in his notes will aid in her receiving a different judgment concerning child support. Discuss the issues that Ms. Taylor is facing concerning confidentiality, the right to privacy, joint custody, and the therapeutic relationship. What are some ways that Ms. Taylor could approach this situation, assuming she has NOT received a subpoena for the records?
