Dual relationships—both intentional and unintentional—can take many forms and often pose ethical\, clinical\, and legal challenges. \nIn recognition of this significant cause of misconduct\, as of October 2025\, the Washington Department of Health has implemented a new requirement for two hours of continuing education in “Professional Roles and Boundaries” every two years (the new Washington State continuing education requirements\, according to WAC 246-809-630\, can be found here). \nIn this continuing education workshop\, we will examine Washington State laws and professional ethical standards regarding personal and dual relationships with clients. Drawing from recent Washington Department of Health disciplinary decisions\, participants will engage with real-world case studies that illustrate common risk areas. The workshop will also offer practical strategies for establishing and maintaining appropriate clinical boundaries in everyday practice. \nThis course is designed to meet the Washington State Department of Health’s continuing education requirement for Professional Roles and Boundaries\, per WAC 246-809-630. \nThe third “bonus” hour will be a question-and-answer session with Eric and will include discussions of complex ethical cases involving professional roles and boundaries. \nContinuing Education Workshop Objectives:\nBy the end of this workshop\, participants will be able to: \n\nImplement strategies to maximize clinical effectiveness while minimizing liability risk;\nApply Washington legal guidelines regarding dual relationships;\nApply ethical standards concerning personal relationships with clients;\nIdentify and describe various types of inconsistent dual relationships;\nRecognize risk factors that may contribute to boundary crossings or violations; and\nCreate and evaluate strategies to maintain appropriate and ethical clinical relationships.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n

But whether we’ve been practicing for years or just starting to integrate the full meaning of our values into the clinical work\, it is essential to reconsider how our field’s ethical principles and standards apply to the actual daily practice with clients. This class will explore some of the most common ethical pitfalls ensnaring even the most experienced therapists. \nThis class is intended to be an entertaining guide to the ethical practice and professional responsibility we strive to attain. From a storytelling perspective\, we’ll look at some slippery slopes\, regrettable missteps\, and colossal blunders. Our focus will primarily be on ethical considerations within the therapeutic relationship – boundary crossings & violations\, professional competency & misconduct\, and the risks of compassion fatigue. \nThis full-day class is designed for practicing therapists with clients of all ages. The workshop will be conducted in a Zoom format. Teaching modalities will include clinical discussion\, lectures with many case examples\, video illustrations\, and small group and individual exercises. \nWorkshop Objectives:\n\nDefine professional competence and identify our scope of practice.\nDifferentiate between boundary crossings and violations.\nIdentify potential impacts of transference and countertransference on ethical practice.\nUtilize Ling & Hauck’s ETHICS model as an option for decision-making.\nExplore the ethical risks of compassion fatigue and strategies to mitigate them.\nDetermine resources and supports for ethical decision-making.\n\nREGISTER HERE

Many of them had done well in graduate school\, but they also felt they lacked practical skills and tools to support their clients in clinical practice. Or they could explain a principle in a clinical way\, but didn’t know how to use that information to offer psychoeducation to their clients. \nThis continuing education workshop is meant to serve as a bridge between higher education “book smarts” and practical clinical application\, offering concepts and tools in easy-to-digest\, easy-to-apply ways. \nWhile geared toward newer clinicians\, this continuing education workshop is also appropriate for therapists who want a skills refresher or need reminders of tools they may have forgotten along the way. \nB offers several instruments and concepts based on her clinical expertise\, so everyone is bound to leave with new knowledge\, practical techniques\, and skills! \nSome topics covered include: relational skills\, attachment\, family and social systems\, relational dependence\, nervous system education\, reinforcement\, learning and epistemology\, transference issues\, clinical expertise\, and humility. \nContinuing Education Workshop Objectives\nAttendees will: \n\nLearn simple ways to explain and explore at least two (2) concepts related to attachment theory and/or relationship models\nDescribe ways that systems impact individuals and vice versa\nDescribe nervous system responses\, including an adapted Polyvagal model\nDescribe at least two (2) clinical life skills that their clients can benefit from\nDefine at least two (2) ways to determine their personal clinical expertise and how to use them in sessions with clients\nLearn how clinical transference and countertransference can be one of a therapist’s best tools\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n  \n
