All therapeutic relationships come to an end, but exactly how should that happen? Clinicians should take care to avoid abandoning clients and instead engage in ethical termination. This workshop will distinguish between termination and abandonment from an NASW ethical perspective. Case studies will highlight complexities that clinicians should assess in their termination process with clients. Learners will feel more informed about what constitutes ethical termination and be prepared to engage in ethical termination practices with clients and avoid unethical abandonment.
Objectives:
- Identify and classify ethical responsibilities of therapeutic termination with clients.
- Describe examples of unethical abandonment and distinguish from ethical termination.
- Discover methods of engaging in ethical termination practices and minimizing unethical abandonment of clients.
