This program focuses on ethical, legal, statutory or regulatory policies, guidelines, and standards that impact psychological practice and explores the manner by which clinical and ethical issues affect the everyday practice of the mental health professional in Missouri. This unique blend of clinical and ethical concerns allows for a more meaningful understanding and interpretation of the rules that govern mental health practice and allows the attendee to identify specific state laws that affect and govern their practice. Through lecture, a review of references including the APA “Ethics Codes” and the seminar manual with state-specific policies and regulations, Attorney Lois Fenner will prepare you for litigation issues that can put your client, your license and your practice at risk. You will learn how to structure your practice to limit exposure of risk, as well as discover record-keeping practices that may help protect you in the event of a complaint. Lois will provide you with the following take-home tools to minimize risk:
You will learn through problem-solving discussions that are representative of actual ethical decisions you encounter in your clinical practice. The blending of Lois' experience as a lawyer, work within the court system and extensive clinical experience makes her a hands-on, knowledgeable instructor!
