16. Parenting Modern Teens Statement on Communication, Teaching and Storytelling
Confidentiality
The confidentiality of our clients’ experiences is a very important part of our coaching method and effectiveness. Clients should feel safe to share intimate details about their family’s experience with their coach in order to get the help they need with the emotional problems they are facing.
We maintain strong confidentiality practices while also allowing the experiences of struggling families to inform the healing of other struggling families. We do this by storytelling.
Storytelling
Storytelling is a powerful method that has been used over generations to pass on teachings from person to person. We tell stories to connect with people’s hearts. Stories let our clients know that their experience is not isolated and that there are other families struggling as they are. We use specifics to make stories impactful while changing some details of the story to protect confidentiality.
Confidentiality Procedures
We protect the confidentiality of all legal and financial information obtained in the course of professional service. Our standard policy is to keep personal information confidential except when disclosure is necessary to prevent serious, foreseeable, and imminent harm to a client or others.
We inform clients, to the extent possible, about the disclosure of confidential information and the potential consequences, when feasible before the disclosure is made.
We, of course, cannot guarantee that all family members, etc. in the coaching process will honor their confidentiality agreements.
We protect the confidentiality of clients' written and electronic records and other sensitive information. We take reasonable steps to ensure that clients' records are stored in a secure location and that clients' records are not available to others who are not authorized to have access.
