This workshop is designed to help psychologists explore and expand their resources for integrating technology into clinical practice in a manner that works best for them.

Ethics Update: What's Hot and What's Not Friday, June 22, 2012 - 9:00am-4:00pm Presenter: Gerald P. Koocher, PhD, ABPP Capitol Plaza Hotel Montpelier, VT 05602 In the world mental health practice and research advances in the field and changes in society constantly create new new ethical challenges. At the same time, some things don't change in the sense that mental health professionals still get into the same sorts of challenging ethical situations that have repeated over many years of clear professional standards. This workshop will address "What's hot," in terms of newly evolving issues attracting considerable recent attention; and "What's not," in terms of persistent ethical challenges among the mental health professions.
