This book examines the circumstances that lead up to sexual boundary violations (SBVs) in psychotherapy. It also considers how such behavior affects clients and therapists, as well as the broader effects on colleagues, institutions, families, and others. Numerous case illustrations are included, and the editors emphasize the importance of education and consultation with mentors and peers in helping therapists maintain a professional frame for the therapeutic relationship, which ensures a safe environment for clients.
