Sex, Social Media, Business and Ethics

Saturday February 21, 2015

Many challenges confront therapists today that force us to stretch our thinking. Is it possible to be an effective therapist, run a business, navigate HIPAA, Medicaid, and the insurance industry. And then add the challenges of dealing with more personality disorders, sexual issues, social media, the Internet, and the challenges of working with more diverse families. Richard has worked in the industry for over 25 years. He is a licensed professional counselor, nationally certified counselor, certified clinical hypnotherapist, certified professional counselor supervisor, certified clinical partner specialist, and a certified clinical sexual addiction specialist. Richard has supervised many therapists for licensure with the state of Georgia. He also does supervision and training around the United States for sexual addiction specialists. Richard has worked with a variety of issues around family law, and working with children and adolescents. This will be a unique approach to ethics with lots of lively discussion around complex issues.
