About this Workshop:

This workshop will focus on the current relevant literature and practice models recommended for working with couples during a disclosure process.

Target Audience:

The target audience is psychologists and professional clinicians in the mental health and addiction fields.

Learning Objectives:

1. Participants will define ethical standards and boundaries within the therapeutic relationship while having a model of decision making.
2. Participants will be able to identify guidelines to help determine the most therapeutic times for disclosure in therapy.
3. Participants will be able to describe how to increase therapeutic effectiveness through the appropriate preparation of clients and their partners for disclosure.
4. Participants will discuss the therapeutic effectiveness of using polygraphs in the context of therapeutic disclosure.
