Sheila came to your office about 8 months ago seeking counseling. She stated that she, "hoped to save her marriage." After a few sessions with Sheila, you suggested that couples counseling might be helpful, but her husband, Roy, refused to participate. Three months ago, Sheila and Roy went through a very nasty breakup of their marriage, and now you have been subpoenaed to produce all of your records pertaining to Sheila's treatment. Sheila has told you not to comply with the subpoena. What should you do

I will obey the subpoena order if it is because of criminal charges that it is being requested for but if it is because of the ex- husband of my clients to gain one or two from the divorce, I will respectfully decline but consult with my client and unless by client my client says otherwise.

Explanation: as a counsellor , I owe it to my client to keep everything said during all her session confidential and should not be disclosed to anyone except by her permission. Giving my client sessions without her consent makes me quity also by the law and also makes me lack credibility. My primary duty is to my client and as a counselor I have to maintain confidentiality.

I will read through the subpoena again and find out what they are really asking for and even seek advice if necessary.
