Hi. I am not sure if there should be choices included in your post. If there is none, I'll just share a circumstance to where a professional practices confidentiality as an answer.

Counselors or psychotherapists can only divulge information about their clients or patients if there is a court order or if the client will harm him/her self or plan to harm others. Primarily, they are to respect the client's choice to keep the sessions with full confidentiality.
