Overview:
Today's behavioral health practitioners face a wide range of challenging ethical issues related to their use of technology to serve clients. Is it ethical for practitioners to use technology to provide services remotely to clients they never meet in person? How should behavioral health professionals manage boundary issues associated with online communications with current and former clients? How should practitioners respond to "friend" requests they receive from clients on online social networking sites?

In this webinar, Dr. Frederic Reamer will explore cutting-edge ethical issues in the digital age in behavioral health.
