Question description
Question A: Ethical Boundaries (200 word minimum with 1 peer reviewed
reference. Make sure to include your opinion, observation, etc)
Ethical decisions are not always easy. Consider the
consequences for everyone invited to the party.
Ethical decisions
during a career can occur every day. It may be as simple as giving a client
money for bus fare home, to accepting gifts, telling a joke that the therapist
thought was funny, to sexual misconduct. Boundaries are divided into two types:
1. Boundary crossings (not unethical) and boundary violations (unethical). It
is important to monitor our own behavior but we also have a responsibility to
monitor the behavior of others in our profession. What would you do?
Use specific examples to
help clarify your information.

A client has been seeing her therapist for over a
year and has worked on recovering from addiction. In addition, there has been
significant progress in the area of the client’s personal relationships.
Because of her progress, the client wants to have a small dinner party with
selected family members and friends to celebrate a milestone in her recovery.
At various points during therapy, the client has included all these selected
individuals in her therapy sessions. The client invites her therapist to attend
as part of her celebration. Should the therapist attend? Why or why not? What
are the possible implications for the therapeutic relationship as a result of
going or not going?

Question C: Sub-specialties
within clinical psychology (200 word

observation, etc)
It is common for a
clinical psychologist to have several specialty areas and to gather more
education and training to add another specialty to his or her vita. Psychology
is ever-changing and the field allows the psychologist to branch out and
develop new skills.
Clinical psychology
subspecialities
In this discussion, do some research on one or two clinical
subspecialties of cognitive psychology. Obviously, learning the basic skills of
therapy and treatment takes several years to master (?) but some
subspecialties such as neuropsychology are often developed during an
internship or post-doctoral program. Some subspecialties are developed under
supervision as a result of where the clinician is employed. That
is how I ended up in a forensic setting working with individuals who had
committed sexual crimes. Others are developed later because of new information
in the field or a need for a change.
What interests you as a subspecialty? Why?
