Digging into Your Code of Ethics
Friday, June 5
9 am - 12 pm
3 Ethics CEUs for mental health professionals
This is not your typical ethics training!
Let’s take a deeper and hands-on dive into the Code of Ethics. In this training, spend time reviewing your profession’s code of ethics (social work, counseling, or marriage and family therapy) and connect with it on a deeper level through sandtray directives. Re-center and connect with the core values that brought you to this profession. Identify common ethical dilemmas and work through an ethical decision making model. Discuss the diversity of approaches and techniques in the profession and differentiate between something being “unethical” vs. just a different approach.
Training is appropriate for mental health graduate students and licensed mental health therapists. No prior sandtray therapy training or experience needed.
Objectives:
Analyze your profession’s code of ethics (social work, counseling, marriage and family therapy) and reconnect with its core values through reflective and experiential sandtray activities.
Identity common ethical dilemmas in practice and apply an ethical decision-making model. Work through the decision-making process in the sandtray.
Differentiate between unethical practices and ethically appropriate variations in therapeutic approaches, with attention to diversity in clinical techniques and perspectives.
