Ethics: Safety and Solicitation is organized by Niel Asher Education.
Ethics: Safety and Solicitation provides a practical and thought-provoking exploration of the ethical issues that can arise when professional boundaries, client behavior, power dynamics, communication, and personal safety intersect.
Presented by Priscilla Fleming, LMT, this course focuses on real-world therapeutic relationships and helps practitioners develop the awareness, confidence, and decision-making skills needed to protect themselves, their clients, and the integrity of the therapeutic relationship.
Course Overview
Across this 4-hour CE/CPD course, participants will explore treatment room safety, ethical decision-making, professional boundaries, client screening, solicitation awareness, power dynamics, communication challenges, and therapeutic relationship management.
Rather than approaching ethics as a compliance exercise, the course examines practical situations that therapists may encounter in clinical practice and offers strategies for recognizing concerns early, responding appropriately, and maintaining professional confidence.
Students will learn how language, social expectations, manipulation tactics, and interpersonal dynamics can influence treatment-room interactions, while also developing clear frameworks for protecting both client welfare and practitioner wellbeing.
