Description:
Cultural diversity in our society invites us to reflect
upon the role of culturally conditioned values held
by individuals within the context of a perceived universal
set of ethical imperatives. Mental health professionals
are challenged to keep their personal beliefs and
values to themselves, to respect the beliefs and values
of consumers, and to become catalytic agents of healing
for the individuals and families we serve in a therapist-consumer
relationship. This presentation will explore our personal
beliefs and values and their impact on our professional
lives, and will propose a threefold set of universal
ethical standards that, once adopted and practiced,
may uncap human potential to self-healing and restructuring
of society.
