- Short Description:
- In recent years there has been an increase in ethics complaints filed with various mental health licensing boards around the country. More mental health professionals are now being confronted with responding to such complaints, especially in regard to forensic cases such as child custody evaluations in family court. In fact, the major complaints to ethics committees of licensing boards now involves child custody cases, parenting disputes, child sexual abuse cases, treatment of clients or testimony in forensic cases. This has replaced complaints about sexual contact between a client and therapist. Most graduate programs or even ethics workshops do not necessarily train mental health professionals in appropriate ways to respond to licensing board complaints, their subpoenas, use of your own expert, hiring attorneys, or dealing with accusations that are actually filed and subsequent administrative law hearings.

- Short Description:
- People with histories of profound and chronic abuse may exhibit behaviors marked by constant crisis, overwhelming emotions, interpersonal and social challenges and distorted beliefs generating internal anguish and external chaos. Exposure to on-going uncontrollable events, consistent with complex trauma, triggers uncertainty, impairing the ability to respond in healthy ways decreasing the person’s sense of agency, inhibits their capacity to connect, and contributing to a profound sense of shame. Informed clinicians can facilitate clients’ understanding of the interplay between neurobiological responses and the sequelae of repetitive interpersonal abuse, reducing the sense of shame. Focusing on clinical concerns and conflicts, common in the first two stages of treatment; the therapist is challenged to advance treatment by exploring what is being expressed through the therapeutic relationship, guiding the client through new ways of thinking, perceiving, and being.
