COURSE DESCRIPTION

Dual relationships are at the core of many ethical issues. Boundary problems comprise the most ethical violations. The supervisor’s job is to manage his or her own attention to dual relationships with supervisees and be on the lookout for potential boundary blurring with supervisees and clients. Yet most ethical violations are not maliciously intended. Supervisors should be aware of cues to potential boundary violations. The supervisor’s job is to manage his or her own attention to dual relationships with supervisees and be on the lookout for potential boundary blurring with supervisees and clients.
