    You are leading a long-term cognitive behavioral therapy group for adults with a diagnosis of depression. The group has been meeting for six months on Tuesday evenings.

Answer

    1. Group Confidentiality

      Resolution of the Conflict between Lucy and Alejandro

      Differences between Luc and Alejandro as well as between Lucy and other group members need to be reduced or resolved. Resolution conflict should include reducing incompatible differences in terms of identity, preferences, beliefs or values (Carton & Tewfik, 2017). Lucy’s perception that she has an obligation to be concerned and care for Alejandro’s son needs to be changed. Besides, her perception that she should not hide anything from her husband ought to be addressed. She ought to acknowledge that’s she is obliged to maintain confidentiality and privacy of her physical and mental health issues and that of others in the group. However, she has a right to share her health and mental health issues with anyone but she should not link or associate herself to anyone in the group as she reveals her personal information. Lucy should be made to release, regardless of her closeness or relations with others, they are considered as a third party.

                  Alejandro’s concerns about breach of confidentiality and privacy rules by Lucy should be acknowledged. Each member in the group has right to confidentiality and privacy and personal information should not be shared with a third party without their consent (Demirsoy & Kirimlioglu, 2016). Lucy should be educated and informed about the impact and the damage that breach of privacy and confidentiality of personal information of any group member. Besides, she should be made to see the damage that her actions has had on Alejandro and be made to apologize to Alejandro and the group for that. Her action may ruin trust among group members and lead to dissolution of the group before treatment goals are made.

      Continuing Group Dialogue

                  Yes, Barry, Monty, Jennifer, and Sung have more to say.

      Group Leader: Lucy, even if we did not sign anything that is legally binding, in group therapy, the right and confidentiality of each and every member is given. Each member is fully responsible for protecting confidentiality and privacy of personal information of any members. In simple terms, what is discussed here should not be discussed with anyone outside this group.

      Lucy: I regret my action. I do apologize to Alejandro and the group. I have only shared Alejandro’s personal information with my husband, which has been unfortunately shared with Alejandro’s wife and the kid. Barry, I have not shared your personal information with anyone and will not do so now or in the future.

      Alejandro: I do accept the apology. My trust on the group has been improved.

      Montgomery: I am now relieved. I was worried that I was about to lose my job.

      Lucy: Montgomery, yes, you need not to worry.

      Barry: Lucy, as you have said let me trust you. My son should not learn about this.

      Sung: I strongly recommend that each member of this group should protect right to confidentiality of each and every group member so that we can share freely without fear of repercussions. For example, I am afraid of not getting a boyfriend.

      Jones: I did share my bad history with my children. But, in respect of confidentiality and privacy of personal information, I will not share any information shared here with anyone.

      Group Leader: I do thank everyone here for recognizing the need to protect the right to privacy and confidentiality of personal information. In that way, we will have free and open dialogue that can help each and anyone of us to resolve mental, social and psychological issues they are facing. We should work as a group to achieve treatment goals and improve our wellbeing. Thank you for understanding.
