Overview

This book describes and analyses the ethical dilemmas faced daily by psychotherapists. Drawing on extensive interviews with practitioners, the author identifies common themes and discusses them in the context of the different modalities - individual, group, marital and family, and organization therapies. Topics include judging one's appropriateness as a care provider for a particular patient, the intrusion of personal interests into therapy, confidentiality, and financial and insurance arrangements. The author also considers common ethical problems arising from the underlying assumptions of the different therapies. This book affords an inside look at how psychotherapists define the basic ethical concerns of their profession and how they meet its ethical challenges. A final chapter contains recommendations for the ethical practice of psychotherapy.
