Word of the Week: ETHICAL

Word of the Week: ETHICAL

Image

Being honest with yourself seems to be the best indicator of professional ethics.  I have found that documentation keeps me accountable for what I see in sessions, and shows me how to translate the data into a short excerpt for parents to hear after sessions.

When I go home at the end of the day, refraining from revealing the identity of clients has been the most prominent ethical procedure throughout internship.  I see so many unique clients of all ages, and I am always excited about telling my family and friends about them.  The experience is rich and vivid, but I have to make sure that I don’t give it all away.  I consciously make sure I do not use names, and I keep information I have gathered about clients’ lives outside of sessions between myself and the clients.
