About this ebook
The Second Edition of Positive Ethics for Mental Health Professionals: A Proactive Approach by Sharon K. Anderson and Mitchell M. Handelsman focuses on shifting the ethical focus from simply avoiding punishment ("remedial ethics") to pursuing the highest ethical ideals ("positive ethics"). [1, 2]
The core topics and chapter structures covered in this updated edition include:
Part I: Basics of Awareness and Professional Identity
- Self-Awareness and Core Values: Understanding your own personal ethical character, virtues, and foundational motivations.
- Social Context and Diversity: Exploring the intersection of ethics with privilege, discrimination, oppression, and social justice.
- Ethical Acculturation: Navigating how to blend your personal moral background with the professional identity and expectations of the field.
- The Ethical Culture of Psychotherapy: Adapting to and maintaining professional values in dynamic practice environments. [1, 2, 3]
Part II: The Nuts and Bolts of Psychotherapy Ethics
- Boundaries and Multiple Relationships: Managing therapist-client boundaries, avoiding harmful crossovers, and safely handling inevitable multiple roles.
- Confidentiality: Maintaining trust, understanding privacy limits, and tackling exceptions to disclosure.
- Informed Consent: Approaching consent as an ongoing, interactive "three-legged stool" process rather than just a signed document.
- Clinical Supervision: Maximizing the ethical and instructional value of the student-supervisor relationship.
- Termination of Treatment: Ending the therapeutic relationship ethically, effectively, and safely. [1]
Part III: Advanced Decisions and Proactive Strategies
- "Tripping Points": Identifying and avoiding predictable pitfalls, ethical blind spots, and common traps professionals fall into.
- Nonrational Factors: Exploring how biases, cognitive heuristics, and automatic emotional responses skew ethical judgment. [1]
