“Really good examples and discussion about different approaches for managing these ethical dilemmas. “…very informational!” Deborah V.
​
“Very informative, provided new information that I did not have, wasn't general overview, I felt it got into the weeds and helped with critical thinking for our clients and practice and how to handle these really tough situations. I really thought it as a great training. I would definitely take a training from Leslie again and will recommend to others.” Jenna C.

“A very important, useful and timely discussion regarding boundaries and best practices. It is a critical area of clinical work to understand and develop policy in private practice.” Barbara H.

“Reminder to not take the foot of the pedal and stay current with the informed consent. As always, timely and helpful information.” Bebe B.
​
“I found the case scenarios to be good jumping off points for group discussion. The discussions made it an interactive workshop, which kept me involved. I also liked that you discussed how it's not just a clear cut "no social media ever" sort of situation, that you we need to consider consequences and then build policies to protect us. It was a great workshop about boundaries, but also addressed how they can help with self-care. Win-win.” Anonymous

“A great reminder of the increased need to be clear with clients and the need to add additional info in consent. “
