Description
Not every multiple relationship is unethical, but some can seriously compromise a psychologist's professional judgment and harm clients. This episode examines the APA Ethics Code provisions addressing multiple relationships, conflicts of interest, exploitation, and professional boundaries. We explore the difference between boundary crossings and boundary violations through realistic clinical scenarios involving gifts, friendships, business relationships, and former clients. Learn how to recognize ethical risks and select the most appropriate answer when these situations appear on the EPPP.
