I think that this is not something that can be done based on ONE incident. Developing a pattern of open communication is something that happens over time, if it is not already in place when something like this happens----then it is very hard.
Kids need to know that adults/parents are there for them, not to judge them but to guide them and support them in making good choices. This happens best if it is done from the very begining.....good communication does not happen overnight.

Tell her/him that u'll be there 2 help and encourage the kid/teen 2 open up. If thats not working just give the person some time and be extremly patient. Be kind and good and give attention 2 her/him. He/ she will open up soon (it works 4 me!!!)

They have to know you won't do anything with the info they give you. They don't want to be betrayed.
Get them involved in an activitiy together; talking may follow.
