So many of the questions and worries I see psychologists asking about involve worries about risk, disclosure, and ways to mitigate risk.

Every mental health professional has wrestled with some variant of the questions below:

• Help! I think a client wants to harm someone else.

• How do I manage clients who make disclosures about risk?

• What do I need to report?

• What is serious harm, and how do I assess this? I’m not a forensic psychologist!

• How do I manage historical child sex abuse reports in my practice? Do I need to report this?

• How do I tell clients if I have to make a report? 

I’ve designed an essential webinar  for psychologists on the critical and complex topics of Mandatory Reporting and Risk Management.

Led by an experienced Clinical and Forensic Psychologist, this session will provide you with practical, up-to-date guidance to protect your clients and your practice and ensure you meet your ethical obligations.

What you will learn:

• A clear breakdown of Mandatory Reporting legislation by state.

• In-depth coverage of managing the risk of serious harm directed at others (including violence, DV, stalking, sexual offences and CEM use) and relevant legislation.

• Strategies for embedding risk management principles directly into your practice setup and daily work.

• Effective ways to navigate challenging conversations with clients about risk.

• A brief overview of best practice when dealing with subpoenas and requests for information sharing.
  
  Additional resources

• Fact sheets summarising the legislation for each state.
  

Equip yourself with the knowledge and skills to manage risk of harm and disclosure confidently, ethically, and legally.
December 11, from 6.30 - 8.30 pm.
