Settled case summary #22 — A counselling firm and An emergency services organization
A counselling firm
The complainant alleged that a counselling firm, which provided services through her employer's employee assistance program, improperly disclosed sensitive information about her to her employer. The firm revealed that the complainant was using their services and believed she was a danger to herself, which led to her supervisor and coworkers becoming aware of her EAP use. The matter was settled when the firm revised its disclosure policies and counsellors were advised to take more detailed notes and disclose only essential information when a client is believed to be in danger.
