250 Words in APA Format
Must have at least one citation with accompanying reference following APA format
Prior to beginning work on this week’s discussion, please review Standard 3: Human Relations (Links to an external site.) in the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct. Please also read the Asay and Lal (2014) “Who’s Googled Whom? Trainees’ Internet and Online Social Networking Experiences, Behaviors, and Attitudes with Clients and Supervisors,†Harris and Robinson Kurpius (2014) “Social Networking and Professional Ethics: Client Searches, Informed Consent, and Disclosure,†and Taylor, McMinn, Bufford, and Chang (2010) “Psychologists’ Attitudes and Ethical Concerns Regarding the Use of Social Networking Web Sites†articles.
For this discussion, you will examine ethical issues encountered by clinical and counseling psychologists in the digital age. Begin by reviewing the cases of Dr. Arnold and Dr. Washington listed below and selecting one of these ethical dilemmas for analysis.
Case 1 Dr. Arnold is a clinical psychologist who specializes in child and adolescent issues. From time to time, she provides consultation on high lethality cases within the juvenile court system. Recently, she was referred a case involving a 15-year-old male who has a history of aggression, angry outburst, destructive behavior, and cyberstalking. Concerned for her safety and well-being, Dr. Arnold input the client’s name into a search engine, which yielded the client’s social network page. Dr. Arnold is uncertain whether or not to look at the client’s social network page.
Case 2 Dr. Washington is a counseling psychologist who specializes in trauma and self-harming behavior. Recently, he received a “friend request†from a former client who he provided individual therapy to six months ago. Dr. Washington opted not to accept the “friend request,†but considered sending a private message to the client with the social networking policy from his informed consent. Dr. Washington is uncertain whether or not to send the private message to the client.
In your initial post, assume the role of a colleague to the doctor named and analyze the ethical issues encountered in your chosen case. Given the situation described in the case study, recommend how your colleague should proceed. Provide support for your response by citing the required articles for this discussion. Consider the current and potential actions of your colleague and explain whether or not he or she is currently, or potentially will be, in violation of the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct. Provide support for your explanation by citing Standard 3: Human Relations (Links to an external site.) in the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct. Explain how your colleague might avoid this type of ethical dilemma in the future. Describe what policy or policies you might put in place if you were your colleague.
WEEK 4 DISCUSSION
Prior to beginning work on this discussion, please watch the Virtual Clinic (Links to an external site.) video and review the Guidelines for the Practice of Telepsychology (2013). Be sure to also read Baker and Bufka (2011), “Preparing for the Telehealth World: Navigating Legal, Regulatory, Reimbursement, and Ethical Issues in an Electronic Age,†Harris and Younggren (2011), “Risk Management in the Digital World,†Luxton et al. (2014), “Best Practices for Remote Psychological Assessment Via Telehealth Technologies,†and Gros et al. (2013), “Delivery of Evidence-Based Psychotherapy via Video Telehealth†articles.
In your initial post, provide an evaluation of the efficacy of using telehealth with mild, moderate, and severe mental health disorders. As part of your evaluation, assess the integration of evidence-based practices into the telehealth trend in psychotherapy. Consider the population, specialty, and treatment preferences you identified in the Week One Creating a Specialist Website interactive assignment, and assess the appropriateness of using telephone, text-based, virtual clinics, and/or video telehealth given your client focus, specialty, and treatment preference(s). Analyze ethical and professional issues you might encounter and explain the risks and benefits of using these delivery methods with your identified treatment population.
Telehealth is a concept that is increasingly gaining popularity in the recent past particularly in counseling therapy. It involves the use of telecommunication technologies in healthcare delivery. Such telecommunication devices include mobile phones, telephones, computers and internet. In the digital age, such devices have greatly been used in providing therapy for patients with mild, moderate and severe mental health disorders. Several studies have been conducted to determine the efficacy of telemedicine in the three states of mental health disorders. Wickwar, McBain and Mulligan (2018) established that remote monitoring and use of telephones are effective in monitoring the adherence to medication particular among severe patients of mental health disorders.
