Telehealth opens doors for trauma therapy but also the potential for new ethical and relational challenges. This training explores the intersection of ethics, clinical presence, and trauma-informed care in virtual settings. Participants will examine considerations and contraindications for telehealth trauma treatment, along with practical guidance for maintaining safety, connection, and attunement online. Emphasis will be placed on transparency and communication practices that sustain trust, such as narrating off-screen actions, preparing for technical disruptions, and responding to signs of activation or dissociation. Through discussion and reflection, participants will gain tools to provide ethical, grounded, and compassionate care in the digital space.
This training meets the ethics requirement for license renewal with the Board of Social Work Examiners.
Cost: $10 for non-CEU attendees, $25 for CEU attendees.
