Therapeutic boundaries are the cornerstone of ethical and effective clinical practice, providing a framework for clarity, safety, and trust within the therapeutic relationship. In this engaging workshop, participants will explore the multifaceted role of boundaries in fostering healthy client interactions while safeguarding their professional integrity.
This training will address key themes such as boundary setting in diverse contexts, navigating boundary crossings versus violations, and handling potential ethical dilemmas with confidence and compassion.
Specific topics will include self-disclosure, outside of office contact, gift-giving, dual relationships, time management (beginning and ending sessions on time), sexual attraction, and physical touch, as well as social media policies and technology issues. In addition, we will explore how a person’s cultural background can influence boundaries.
Participants will leave with practical tools to enhance self-awareness, manage countertransference, and ensure that their professional boundaries serve as a foundation for trust and transformation in their work. Whether you are a seasoned clinician or just beginning your career, this workshop will provide valuable insights and actionable strategies to strengthen your practice.
