There may have been a HIPAA violation by the therapist. However, there may have been nothing unlawful or illegal for the principal to make the call. You were wise to get general information based upon the few facts you could provide here. The Smart this now may be to consult directly with a civil practice attorney. Many offer a free or low cost initial consultation. Gather all the relevant documents and your notes, and contact an attorney in your area.

Good luck
