| What is happening, or failing to happen, that is causing the trouble? |
Multiple relationships is occurring causing the trouble |
The supervisor’s friendship has caused a multiple relationship; neither the supervisor nor the trainee are respecting boundaries |
| How might the supervisor go about improving this situation? |
Eliminate multiple relationships |
The supervisor can re-set the relationship by starting over, model good ethics by citing the ethics code and how the friendship violates it, and then going over boundaries and expected behavior during feedback sessions. Also explain consequences if the problem persists. |
