Mental health professionals frequently encounter complex ethical dilemmas that challenge their decision-making and clinical judgment. In this webinar, participants will explore how personal crises can impact professional effectiveness, the ethical implications of AI-assisted mental health care, and the clinician’s role in physician-assisted dying cases. Through discussion and case examples, attendees will learn strategies to navigate these difficult situations while maintaining ethical integrity. This session will provide practical guidance on balancing professional responsibilities, legal considerations, and evolving ethical standards. By the end of the webinar, participants will be better equipped to manage these challenges and minimize potential risks in their practice.
