ETHICS TRAINING
October 29 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
This workshop addresses ethics in the context of substance disorder counseling. The principles underlying all
treatment professionals’ codes of ethics are a focus, as well as, how these codes address issues relating to the
counseling relationship, confidentiality, counselor competence, supervision, the use of digital media and social
networks, artificial intelligence and dual relationships. Also, participants will learn an ethical decision-making model
that can assist them in determining how to respond appropriately to challenging situations that arise in substance
use disorder treatment. In addition, participants will learn the distinction between boundary extensions and
boundary violations and recent guidelines to follow when considering a boundary extension. Case studies will be
utilized throughout the workshop both in large and small group discussions to provide participants with experience
in applying ethical and professional standards, as well as the decision-making model, to practical workplace
situations.
