Ethics: The Major Moral Theories in Applied Ethics

Teacher

COURSE OVERVIEW

Many of us strive to be ethical in our personal and professional lives. But most of us have little idea of the major moral theories underlying our ethical decision-making. This webinar will start with a tour of the history of ethics from our religious, philosophical, and psychological heritage. Next, we will look at the advantages and disadvantages of the four major ethical theories and approaches-including the consequentialist (outcomes-based), the deontological (duty-based), and blended approaches. And finally, we will construct our personal ethical philosophy and develop a checklist to better manage ethical conundrums in our clinical practices.

COURSE OBJECTIVES

Explain the theories from meta, normative, and practical vantage points.

Jim Anderson, LCMHC, LCAS, CSAT

Jim C. Anderson, LPC, LCAS, CSAT, began his career working in inpatient psychiatric settings in both Maine and California-eventually serving as the Director of Outpatient Services for both psychiatric and substance abuse services. His focus shifted more directly into substance abuse work with a position as Clinical Director at Azure Acres in California, a founding residential facility of the Camp Recovery Centers-an organization which grew to become one of the largest provider of substance abuse services in the nation. In 2002, he relocated his young family to Davidson, NC, and took a position (and eventually partnered with his supervisor to own) two substance abuse education clinics in Charlotte and Mooresville, NC. He formed ‘Conscious Sense, LLC’ in 2008-a private practice in Cornelius, NC, which specializes in sexual addiction and partner trauma, spiritual growth & development, and integral therapy for individuals and couples. He has presented throughout his twenty year career, including audiences with the FBI, the NC Licensed Professional Counselors Association, several college/university settings, and regular CEU trainings with provider organizations in North Carolina.
