Show Notes

CW// suicide and homicide 

In this episode we discuss the cases that provide legal precedents for the laws and standards we practice under today and then discuss how to balance liability, safety and practicing therapy in the way you were trained and makes sense to you.

Reminder, please review and stay up-to-date on your state's laws, your licensure board's policies, your agency policies as well as your professional ethical standards. This refresher is general and discussed federal law and general standards of care for mental health professionals.
