This course focuses on the ethics of setting boundaries not just with clients—but with systems. Therapists often face pressures from agencies, institutions, or leadership that can lead to ethical strain, role conflict, and burnout. This workshop provides practical strategies for ethical self-advocacy, rooted in the NASW Code of Ethics, and addresses dual loyalty, vicarious trauma, and systems-based harm in clinical environments.

Upon completion of the webinar, participants will be able to:

Analyze ethical tensions that arise when organizational demands conflict with clinical ethics.
Describe the impact of role strain and dual loyalty on clinician well-being and client care.
Apply an ethical decision-making framework to real-world workplace dilemmas.
Evaluate how ethical self-advocacy supports integrity, social justice, and service within complex systems.
