Description

Boundaries have been blurred, the landscape of our professional practices has encroached upon our personal lives, and the relationships with our clients and colleagues have changed. The pandemic asked much of us by way of flexibility and adaptation, much of it to best serve our clients, but at what cost? Is virtual practice blending into your home life? Do you feel like the clear and rigid boundaries you once had created to protect dual relationships have crumbled or blurred? Have colleagues gotten a glimpse into your world via the virtual space, perhaps sharing more than what seems comfortable? In this workshop, we will explore all the new gray areas in our practice and collegial spaces. Uniquely, participants in the session will provide examples of ethical dilemmas and walk through the challenges to learn how to best embrace or color the gray, to improve ethical decision-making. This workshop will reference both the NASW Code of Ethics and the ACA Code of Ethics.

  • • Counselors
