Presenter(s): Ofer Zur, Ph.D.
Session Length: 2 hr. 00 min. Event: 2007 Networker Annual Symposium Date: March 15-18, 2007
In this litigious age, many therapists cautiously tiptoe through their practices, fearfully trying to avoid being ensnared in ethical dilemmas that could result in lawsuits or board investigations. But it's possible to make sound ethical decisions and practice with deep integrity without losing our ability to be both creative and compassionate in therapy. In this workshop, we'll use vignettes from movies to illustrate and discuss some of the most important ethical issues that arise in therapy, including touch, gifts, confidentiality, informed consent, self-disclosure, e-therapy, dual relationships, and therapy-related out-of-office contact with clients. You'll leave with a greater sense of how to be fully and ethically yourself in and out of the therapy room.
