Video Course: The Educated Heart

Laura Allen

While we're certainly obligated to honor the boundaries of the client, we need to remember to honor our own in the interest of having a successful and enjoyable career. In this ethics course, you'll discover that maintaining clear boundaries is vital to your prosperity and your peace of mind. We'll explore seven misconceptions about boundaries and learn not only to recognize potentially troublesome situations, but how to deal with them with integrity. Lastly we'll look at the need for policies and procedures, even for a lone practitioner, and how you can develop your own.
