you will compose a brief policy sheet on risk management for your private practice/company manual focused on ethical considerations related to marketing and advertising. This sheet can serve as an important part of your documentation and informed consent. You should consider your termination process, advertising through social media, and how you will communicate with clients electronically. Thoughtfully consider this assignment because you may later choose to use this document in your practice and share it with clients during the informed consent process.

Be sure to respond to the following questions:

1. What are some ethical considerations therapists must consider when marketing?

2. What are the risks associated with terminating a client? What are therapists required to provide when terminating?

3. What are the types of self-disclosures?

4. What are some concerns associated with professional websites and online social networking?

5. How will you handle social media requests from clients?

6. What is your policy regarding communication? Will you accept and respond to text messages?
