9 am to 4 pm
This course meets the Board of Behavioral Sciences (BBS) 6-Hour Law and Ethics -- COST 40.---CEU'are free. Must enroll to attend.
Topics to be included:
• Legal and Ethical issues for psychotherapists,
• Client presentations (personality disorders, abuse survivors, sexualizing therapy, neediness, etc.),
• Legally and ethically challenging issues (letters, custodial disputes, mandated counseling, etc.), therapy configurations (family, couples, parents and children or teens, etc.),
• Professional practices (insurance, billing, debts), and
• Therapist vulnerabilities (ignorance, arrogance, being the “gallant knight” or rescuer, being “special,” relational self-medication, etc.)
• A Legal & Ethical Seminar Addressing Client Types and Issues and Clinician Personality and Counter-transference Leading to Boundary Violations.
• Who Messes You Up (including who is mostly likely to elicit an ethical or legal breach and who is mostly likely to make a complaint).
• How You Screw Up Anyway (despite knowing better)!
This seminar will use case vignettes derived from published cases of BSE and Psychology Board disciplinary actions, CAMFT Therapist journal articles, and from experiences of the presenter (including his participation on the Ethics Board of the California Association of Marriage & Family Therapists- CAMFT).
• There are clients that are immediately perceived as potentially problematic, while others surprise and even ambush a therapist.
• Certain clinical situations are relatively straightforward while others are littered with not only therapeutic but also legal and ethical land mines.
• Sometimes knowing or getting clarification regarding legal and ethical requirements and guidelines, instead of giving a therapist confidence, it makes him/her more uncomfortable or anxious. That is probably an indication of a vulnerability that may play out subsequently in a legal or ethical quandary, breach, or mistake.-----------------------------------TRAINER Ronald Mah, L.M.F.T., CEU provider #PCE3298 The workshop presenter has a successful private practice (including many adolescents and young children, families and couples) having successfully marketed himself primarily through the use of workshop presentations (presentations now available on dvds; currently working w/ a publishing company on a new book).

“Rejuvenating Our Spirit and Souls as Healers” - 8/4/2009
9:00 am to 11:30 am
“Rejuvenating Our Spirit and Souls as Healers”
For many of us in human services what we do is more than just a job. Our everyday contributions to our communities is our “life’s work”, a way of making a difference and hopefully contributing to greater overall community health and well-being. However, the work we do is often accompanied by challenges. In the context of current times, economies are stretched which translates into scarcity of resources on many levels.
Our own backgrounds and narratives in our committed work inform our perspectives and abilities to be effective healers. In this workshop, we will revisit some of these significant narratives, how they interweave with children and families in communities, and our abilities to form effective cultural partnerships and collaborations. Concepts of resilience, recovery and wellness pertain not only to those we intend to serve but to ourselves as well. With these stories as a backdrop, we will then turn to dynamic, multi-modal and creative ways to rejuvenate our hearts and minds, as well as spirits and souls as healers contributing to overall social justice.
Goals and Objectives
By the end of the workshop, attendees will:
1) utilize a narrative process to further their work as healers;
2) increase personal and team resources to assist in their mutual work;
3) identify personal and creative resources to further inform their work;
4) locate sources of challenge as well as sources of future hope and renewal.
