Session One: Developing A Philosophy for Ethics In Counseling
8:30 am – 10:00 AM
Cris Cannon, D.Min., LPC/MHSP, CCMHC, ACS
Ethics may be considered “a set of rules” that one must consider in certain situations. Or ethics may become a living way of considering client interactions based on one’s own personal philosophy. This session will inform your thinking about ethics and assist you in building your own ethical philosophy.

Session Two: Foundations of Ethical Decision Making
10:30 am – Noon
Cat Tourangeau, M.Ed., LPC/MHSP, NCC
This session will review common ethical dilemmas in counseling, best practices for ethical decision making using the ACA Code of Ethics, and practical guidelines for implementation.

Session Three: Revisiting Carl Rogers: The Power of Relationship in an Evidence-Based World
1:00 pm – 2:30 pm
Cris Cannon D.Min., LPC/MHSP, CCMHC, ACS

For many, “Carl Rogers” may be an archaic name from counseling history that was merely a chapter in your graduate school course on “Counseling Theories.” In reality the work of Dr. Rogers is foundational to all that we do. Dr. Cannon will lead a reappraisal of Dr. Rogers work from the past as means to show its relevance in helping clients to experience authentic change.

Session Four: Building an Affirming Practice for LGBTQ+ Clients 3:00 – 4:30 pm
Cat Tourangeau, M.Ed., LPC/MHSP, NCC
An affirming therapy environment is a crucial part of LGBTQ+ clients’ mental health journey. This presentation will share lessons learned in creating a practice that supports and affirms LGBTQ+ clients and families from their first phone call to completion of treatment, including diversity-informed approaches to administrative, clinical, training, and supervisory aspects of a practice helps support better outcomes for LGBTQ+ clients.
