Dual-Relationships and Boundaries Paper
1.
Select one of the following scenarios:
o
A psychologist is seeing a client in therapy. The client tells him she
can no longer pay for sessions. He has been struggling to deal with the
paperwork imposed by managed care and billing. He suggests that the client can
work for him 2 days per week instead of paying for sessions.
o
You are a professor at a local college. One of the students in your
class is clearly distraught. You notice this and mention that you hope
everything is okay. The student tells you that his wife recently left him and
he is having difficulty coping with the situation. You talk to him for a few
minutes, then leave for your office. At the next class, the student tells you
how much he appreciated your concern. He states that he understands that you
are a psychologist and asks for your card. The next day, he calls your office
for an appointment to see you.
o
A client you are seeing has a house on the island of St. Thomas in the
Caribbean. One day, during a particularly difficult session, the client
suggests that you might enjoy a trip to St. Thomas and a stay at his villa on
the ocean. You tell him that you do not have any time for a trip but thank him
for his offer. The next week, the client states that he will not take
"No" for an answer and tells you that on your next vacation, you must
let him know so he can make certain that the villa is available.
o
A close friend of yours is having difficulty with her teenage daughter.
She knows you are a psychologist who specializes in adolescents. She asks if
you would be willing to see her daughter for a few sessions to straighten her
out.
