Description

Ethical & Moral Junctions in Behavioral Healthcare: Beyond the Standard ‘Clinical-Ethical-Legal’

This is a unique and first-of-its-kind presentation that expands the meaning of ethics in psychology and psychotherapy  beyond “codes of ethics” and clearly differentiates it from “risk management”. It will tie it to the heart of ethics, which differentiates right vs. wrong and good vs. bad.  

This one-hour course identifies nine ethical-moral junctions that mental health practitioners may face in their line of work.  Each of the topics includes a short presentation that helps participants understand the complexities involved in each junction.

The 9 junctions include:

  • Protect suicidal client or protect therapist
  • Therapist’s quandary: To lie or not to lie to a client
  • Give a clinically correct DSM DX or a false DX that serves the therapist and/or client
  • Clinical Effectiveness vs. Risk Management: Managing Boundaries
  • Digital Immigrants Therapists vs. Digital Natives Clients
  • Oppose or support for minor’s gender transition?
  • Oppose or help women patients seeking abortions in states that ban it?
  • Recommending potentially helpful but Illegal psychedelics to patients?
  • Context: Is it ethical or unethical for therapists to be naked w/ clients?

This is a non-interactive, self-study course.
