Maintaining professional boundaries is unmistakable when we discuss work with clients; however, we often neglect to apply boundaries when it extends beyond our clinical work into the area of our personal lives. Neglecting these boundaries can have a profound effect on our levels of stress and burnout.
Discuss the importance of maintaining professional and personal boundaries and refer to the ACA and AMHCA's ethics and standards or other references to support your discussion. Provide specific examples to illustrate your ideas.
Please use professional literature to support your views and writings. Reference your sources using standard APA guidelines.
