Course Description
This course gives psychotherapists the tools they need to resolve the common ethical and boundary issues and dilemmas that they may expect to encounter in their everyday professional practice. Privacy and confidentiality, multiple relationships, conflicts of interest, self-awareness, therapy with families and couples, personal, cultural and religious values, duty to warn, duty to protect, professional accountability, supervision and peer consultation, fees and fee setting are all permeated with boundary issues. The overall purpose is to provide the opportunity for therapists to step back and examine their own principles and practices within the context of boundary issues that are included in the ethical codes of four of the major professional associations of psychotherapists in the United States – the American Psychological Association (APA), the National Association of Social Workers (NASW), the National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC), and the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT).
