Description

Part 2 - Ethical training discussing gray areas in clinical therapy practice. Part Two: Ethical dilemmas do not just appear, nor do they occur in a vacuum. There are complex, contextual issues at work in every ethical dilemma. We may deem our actions safe through rationalization, or resort to hiding aspects of our work from colleagues when uncertain of the clinical implications or consequences. Supervision and consultation can serve a protective factor, but only when properly utilized prior, during, and upon resolution of ethical gray areas. Often we have to deal with our own expectations, judgments, fears, and fragile egos to admit that we might be crossing into dangerous territory. The presenters will utilize a variety of methods to engage participants including case scenarios, group discussion, and clips of psychotherapy sessions as portrayed in popular television series. The goal of this training is to take a non-legalistic approach to exploring ethics and to prompt critical evaluation of personal and professional boundaries.
