Description: "What's the difference between privilege and confidentiality?  When are therapists allowed to break confidentiality and when are they required to?  When can progress notes or confidential psychotherapy notes be subpoenaed as evidence in a trial?  How does a therapist  know when to break confidentiality to warn someone of potential danger?  What exactly does "reasonable cause to suspect" mean when deciding whether to report child abuse?  Is failing to report child abuse an ethical violation, or is it actually a crime?  This informative, comprehensive and entertaining DVD course will answer all these questions and more..."--Container.
