The technique to use is a hierarchical package structure.
package X is
...
private
...
end X;
package X.Y is
-- Cannot see X's private part
private
-- Can see X's private part
end X.Y;
package body X.Y is
-- Can see X's private part
end X.Y;

Ah, maybe what you really want is the Iterator procedure in your ADT to be
generic, like this:
generic
with Do_Something ( Item : in out Item_Type);
proceudre Iterator (ADT : in out ADT_Type);
Then you can just instantiate it in your client with what ever procedure
you want...

Please don't go down that road.
