When providing services, clinicians spend so much time complaining that our clients don\u2019t what we tell them fast enough that we often find ourselves tracking \u201cnon-compliance\u201d as a beahvior of change. But what if instead of seeing \u201cnon-compliance\u201d as a problem behavior, we thought of it as a removal of treatment assent? This week Dr. Haley Steinhauser and Alex Kishbaugh join us to discuss the importance of assessing and gaining client consent in our practice and how signalling \u201cno\u201d isn\u2019t a problem, but a skill.

This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
