This ethics program will provide you with a structure for ethical decision-making that will serve your clients, yourself, your profession and your community. State licensing boards and professional associations set forth professional codes of ethics to define standards of professional conduct that ensure the highest good for the client in our therapeutic relationships. The first step in practicing ethically is to become aware of these established regulations and to implement them within your professional practice.
Ethics within the health care profession is concerned with the establishment and maintenance of moral relationships between those individuals coming in for treatment, on the one hand, and the professional therapists rendering treatment, on the other. Together our personal and professional codes of ethics form the basis for our standards of ethical decision-making and resulting conduct.

This was the best ethics course I have taken so far. I loved how it went in depth about different types of relationships between client and therapist. It is so helpful to keep this knowledge fresh in your mind at all times.

A lovely to the point, concise and easily understandable course. I enjoyed the process and the knowledge gained. I personally would have liked more graphics, (very wordy for me), which is a nice summation of information detail.
