#Selfdisclosure in therapy can be a powerful tool, but it's full of ethical gray areas and pitfalls, especially in the digital age. So how do you know whether to share your own story with a client? How do you know when to disclose and when to hold back? For the answers, we asked #ethics expert and sought-after speaker Kirsten Lind Seal, PhD, LMFT, to bring us this new course, #Boundaries & Self Disclosure: Navigating the Balance Between Authenticity and Ethical Practice. You can still sign up (but registration closes in 6 days).

Interesting perspective here. if you're a clinician in private practice, what do you think? Share your thoughts.

What do Starbucks and the mental health industry have in common? They're both realizing that people aren't hanging around them to buy products; they're looking for community and connection. As someone from the Pacific Northwest, I know that Starbucks' coffee was never great. At times, it was decent, but you could always find something better down the street in Tacoma. But I still went to Starbucks semi-regularly because I knew I could reasonably expect a warm space with chairs and soft music and friendly baristas. I could snack and work or chat with a friend. Once it got too busy, and they got desperate with their products, and they made the soft chairs go away, I stopped going. So did a lot of their customers. Turns out, if all they're offering is mediocre coffee and convenience, Dunkin' is just as good. But I think the same thing is in the works for mental health companies. If you're just offering cheap, fast food therapy with stressed-out clinicians, people are just going to go to Barnes and Noble for another self-help book. You're not scaling the transaction of therapy. Therapy is just the proxy for what happens inside the therapeutic relationship, which is deep and real and life changing. If you get rid of what makes your product valuable, you won't have customers anymore. #mentalhealth #qualityoverquantity #therapy
