About this course

Ethics in psychotherapy is often reduced to resolving dilemmas and navigating rule systems — but this framing, Dr. Lee argues, is fundamentally incomplete. Because professional ethics is ultimately structured around relationships and the boundaries between persons, it cannot be understood without a substantive account of what a person is. Ethics, rightly understood, begins with the nature of the human person.
