PROFESSIONAL CONSULTATIONS
Are you a mental health provider with a client who was suddenly diagnosed with cancer but lack the competence in treating this population? Per the CAMFT Code of Ethics: “5.11 SCOPE OF COMPETENCE:Marriage and family therapists take care to provide proper diagnoses of psychological disorders or conditions and do not assess, test, diagnose, treat, or advise on issues beyond the level of their competence as determined by their education, training, and experience. While developing new areas of practice, marriage and family therapists take steps to ensure the competence of their work through education, training, consultation, and/or supervision.”
Mary Mathew offers professional consultations to other clinicians (PhD, PsyD, LMFT, LCSW, LPCC, trainees and associates) who are working with people effected by cancer. Consultations can be scheduled in 60 minutes ($225) or 90 minutes ($325) time slots.
