Mental health professionals are consistently challenged with the obligation to keep client confidences and the obligation to share this information in order to meet particular ethical and legal obligations. This course brings real-world context to ethical concerns related to confidentiality, often experienced by professionals in practice.

This course will provide a framework to contemplate ethical dilemmas and make informed decisions that insulate professionals from legal liability while protecting clients from harm. Regardless of a professional’s level of experience in the field, the complications of confidentiality are ever-present.
