Ethical Decision-Making in Complex Cases
(0.6 ceu)
6 hours CE credit: BRN, LCSW/MFT, and psychologists
This course satisfies the law and ethics course requirement for psychologists, MFTs, and LCSWs that is required during each license renewal cycle.Clinical dilemmas can present mental health professionals with circumstances in which they may have no clear legal, ethical, or policy directives to guide them. Literature over the past decade reflects divergent and often conflicting opinions regarding such issues as dual roles, duty to protect, and suicide. This highly interactive workshop, designed by the American Psychological Association, teaches participants a model to use in making sound, ethical decisions, and provides practice in using the model with difficult cases. Participants examine the complexity of cases by reviewing their own personal responses to ethical dilemmas as well as cultural and social aspects that influence ethical decisions.
