"Working with Minor Clients: Prepare for Success and Avoid the Pitfalls" Presenter: Alain Montgomery, JD, CAMFT Staff Attorney
Webinar Description:
Working with minors requires an understanding of the laws and ethical standards that pertain to minor consent and the authority that minors, and/or others, have over the minor’s clinical information. Additionally, working with minors may involve the need to interact and share information with third parties. During this three (3) hour presentation, CAMFT Staff Attorney Alain Montgomery will review California minor consent laws and common issues related to the confidentiality of the minor’s healthcare information.

Just a reminder, California therapists!

Starting July 1, there’s a new requirement under SB 1024: You’ll need to update your “Notice to Clients” with additional information when starting services, especially if you provide telehealth.

This is part of a larger change that went into effect January 1, stating that you'll no longer need to physically display your license for telehealth services.

Make sure your forms are up to date! Learn more about the new requirements here:
