This paper examines the concepts of secrecy and confidentiality from an intra-psychic, interpersonal and group dynamic perspective. This is illustrated with material drawn from family therapy, biography, social history and group-analytic training. The case is made for regarding secrecy as an anti-group phenomenon, in contrast with confidentiality, which is presented as a therapeutic factor.

Interprofessional collaboration is essential to maximize outcomes of young children who are Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing (DHH). Speech-language pathologists, audiologists, educators, developmental therapists, and parents need to work together to ensure the child's hearing technology is fit appropriately to maximize performance in the various communication settings the child encounters. However, although interprofessional collaboration is a key concept in communication sciences and disorders, there is often a disconnect between what is regarded as best professional practice and the self-work needed to put true collaboration into practice. This paper offers practical tools, processes, and suggestions for service providers related to the self-awareness that is often required (yet seldom acknowledged) to create interprofessional teams with the dispositions and behaviors that enhance patient/client care.
