Ethical issues concerning boundaries and dual relationships are among the most complex and difficult for the mental health professional. Other than explicit prohibitions concerning sexual contact with clients, many of the boundary situations which arise are not easy to assess ethically. What constitutes a boundary violation in one situation may be ethically acceptable in a similar situation. This course seeks to guide therapists in sorting through boundary crossings, boundary violations, and dual relationships in order to discern what constitutes not only the highest standards for ethical behavior, but the highest standards for practice. Ethical theory and principles are included, with particular attention to virtue ethics. This course meets Florida requirements for Ethics of Boundary and Dual Relationship issues.
