Course Description
Katie Vernoy, MS, LMFT and Curt Widhalm, MA, MS, LMFT|Walk & Talk and Other Non-Traditional Therapy Settings – Part 2 (1 CE hour)
Even before the pandemic hit, many different types of therapeutic programs were happening outside of the office. Substance abuse treatment as well as youth programs were heading out into the great outdoors, public mental health was bringing therapy into folks’ homes and communities, and innovative clinicians were inviting their clients to walk and talk. Now that the pandemic has forever impacted how we do therapy, these innovative practices warrant another look. Video sessions have become very popular, but don’t serve every client. How can we be clinically effective with ALL of our clients? Let’s get creative and look at non-traditional therapy settings. In this continuing education course, we’ll talk about logistical, legal and ethical considerations for adding these options to your therapy practice.
Participants will be able to:
- Provide an accurate informed consent for these services to clients
- Explain at least 3 risks to confidentiality to clients (and identify ways to navigate these risks with clients)
- Identify at least 2 potential dual relationships that can occur when engaging in treatment in non-traditional therapy settings
