Description

For almost 25 years, The Trust has been providing continuing education workshops and individual consultations, with a focus on improving psychologists’ risk management skills and strategies. These workshops have evolved from basic concepts and strategies to a more applied, integrated, and strategic approach to help you protect yourself from adverse disciplinary and legal actions.

For this newest workshop, The Trust Risk Management Program reviewed data from over 70,000 consultations provided to date in order to determine which issues and questions are most pressing for today’s psychologists. Topics will include boundaries and multiple relationships, challenging terminations, working with children in the midst of family conflict, coping with disciplinary complaints, and psychotherapy patient requests for legally related documentation.

Instructors: Leisl Bryant, Ph.D., ABPP; Julie Jacobs, Psy.D., J.D; Joe Scroppo, Ph.D., J.D.; Daniel O. Taube, J.D., Ph.D.; Amanda D. Zelechoski, J.D., Ph.D., ABPP

This course was a very useful review of difficult ethics situations and how to navigate them and included a good dose of humor. I especially appreciated the summary of important issues and situations to keep top of mind, as well as clear recommendations of how to navigate a complaint to a licensing board. I appreciated the reminder that The Trust offers unlimited 20 minute consultations. Highly recommend!!
