Sexual Dilemmas for the Helping Professional - Hardcover

Sexual dilemmas for the helping professional.

Zustand: Gut. XXII, 232 S. Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - Because training programs for professionals in the helping fields often neglect these very human aspects of everyday practice, this groundbreaking volume fills a vital need. Sexual energy between client and therapist, as well as between professionals working together, is treated as a "given," and the authors explore in depth the many situations that give rise to "sexual dilemmas" that affect both client and helping professional. Above all, they give practical guidance to dealing with problems that might otherwise compromise services to clients in a variety of settings- the private office, the clinic or agency, the hospital service, the residential home or halfway house, and even the classroom in teaching and training institutions. Among the topics covered are: Seduction: Therapeutic and antithera- peutic seduction-How and why clients seduce-Who seduces whom? -- Power: The client's and the clinician's. Opportunity: Vulnerability-Our culture of opportunity. -- Self-interest: What do you stand to lose?-Intimacies with former clients- Ethical implications of acting out. --Morality: Responses to feelings of attractions and seductive behavior-The limits of involvement-The supervisor's role. -- The Question of Personal Regard: Deviance vs. taboo-Therapeutic errors- When should "referral out" be a solution?-Recommended approaches. -- Like Client, Like Clinician: Matching client to clinician-Advising clients on sexual questions. -- Relationships Among Staff: Liaisons- Sex and the pecking order-Sexual harassment. -- Legal Considerations: Malpractice- Criminal and professional sanctions.
