 This 6-hour CE Ethics course interprets the International Federation for Biblio/Poetry Therapy's Code of Ethics for those facilitating expressive and therapeutic writing groups.  Each of the six principles of the Code is explored via transcripted conversations between Kathleen Adams, LPC, creator of the Therapeutic Writing Institute, and Susan de Wardt at the completion of her credentials training program.

You may complete the course at your own pace. It is moderated by Elaine Brooks, retired psychiatric nurse and current co-president of the Federation. Once paid for, the course lives permanently in your Learning Library at Journalversity.

This is a required course for all Therapeutic Writing Institute students and must be completed within the first year of training OR before supervised facilitation begins, whichever happens first.
