Reamer examines the ethics involving intimate and sexual relationships
with clients and former clients, practitioners' self-disclosure, giving
and receiving favors and gifts, bartering for services, and unavoidable
and unanticipated circumstances such as social encounters and
geographical proximity. Case vignettes help illustrate important points.
Reamer also gives practical risk-management models to aid human service
professionals in the prevention of problematic situations and the
managing of dual relationships.
