Complicated Relationships: Case Studies in Ethics and Boundaries
Mental health professionals are more than their professional role. We have personal lives. When those personal lives intertwine with our professional lives, things get complicated. This training explores dual/multiple relationships by examining case examples from the common to the unlikely, but still real. Special attention will be paid to considerations for communities where dual/multiple relationships in the provision of mental health care might not be avoidable, including rural areas, religious groups, LGBTQ communities, and veterans of military service.
This course is designed to meet the NYS requirement of mental health professionals to receive 3 hours of training on maintaining appropriate professional boundaries. This course is NOT New York state specific, and can satisfy ethics, boundaries and general CE requirements for any state.
Class 2
1:45 PM - 4:45 PM EST
Restoring the Restless: Ethical and Culturally Competent Care for Black Women with Anxiety and Depression
This workshop provides mental health clinicians with practical tools and evidence-based strategies to effectively address anxiety and depression in Black women, focusing on culturally responsive and ethical care. Black women face unique stressors rooted in systemic inequities, cultural expectations, and intersectional identities, which often exacerbate mental health challenges. The session aims to deepen clinicians' understanding of these factors while equipping them with affirming practices, resilience-building techniques, and culturally adapted interventions, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Affirmative Practices.
Participants will explore the ethical considerations of providing culturally competent care, including addressing implicit bias, informed consent, and the ethical responsibility to acknowledge and validate racial trauma. The workshop will also examine the impact of racial stress, discrimination, and the "Strong Black Woman" stereotype on emotional well-being. Through interactive discussions, case studies, and hands-on activities, attendees will learn to challenge unhelpful thought patterns, validate clients' experiences, and foster emotional resilience.
Clinicians will leave the workshop with a comprehensive framework and practical tools to provide affirming, culturally competent, and ethically sound care that empowers Black women to navigate stress and anxiety while promoting their mental and emotional wellness.
