Ethical Boundaries -- Part I:
Avoiding the Slippery Slope
Kim Strom-Gottfried, PhD, LISW
Codes of ethics in the health and helping professions all address the avoidance of conflicts
of interest and, in particular, the potential for damage from dual relationships. This session
describes the array of boundary issues that are common to professional practice and the
conflicts of interest that can result. Participants will utilize decision-making and other
models to examine how to avoid such dilemmas, and how to set clear, appropriate and culturally
sensitive boundaries when such conflicts are unavoidable.
