DUAL RELATIONSHIPS. Please be aware that given the personal nature of psychological services and to protect your child’s welfare, our relationship must be professional and not extend beyond the scope of clinical services. This includes trading professional services, attending your child’s personal events, contacting the psychologist at home and on social networking internet sites.
DUAL RELATIONSHIPS. Despite a popular perception, not all dual or multiple relationships are unethical or avoidable. Therapy never involves sexual or any other dual relationship that impairs Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx'x objectivity, clinical judgment or can be exploitative in nature. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx will assess carefully before entering into non-sexual and non-exploitative dual relationships with clients. It is important to realize that in some communities, particularly small towns, military bases, university campus, etc., multiple relationships are either unavoidable or expected. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx will never acknowledge working with anyone without his/her written permission. Many clients have chosen Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx as their therapist because they knew him/her before they entered therapy with him/her, and/or are personally aware of his/her professional work and achievements. Nevertheless, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx will discuss with you the often-existing complexities, potential benefits and difficulties that may be involved in dual or multiple relationships. Dual or multiple relationships can enhance trust and therapeutic effectiveness but can also detract from it and often it is impossible to know which ahead of time. It is your responsibility to advise Xxxxxxx if the dual or multiple relationship becomes uncomfortable for you in any way. Xxxxxxx will always listen carefully and respond to your feedback and will discontinue the dual relationship if s/he finds it interfering with the effectiveness of the therapy or your welfare and, of course, you can do the same at any time.
