Workshop Description:

Moral Injury has gained greater acceptance in the practice of psychotherapy. Moral injury involves a significant traumatic experience, creating negative emotions, that can dramatically change a person’s sense of self.

This one-hour lecture will outline general ethical issues as these relate to moral injury. There will be an outline of how the self is essentially moral, as well as the core features of moral injury. We will outline the differences between moral injury and PTSD. Finally, several case examples will illustrate how patience, as well as treating psychologists, can experience moral injury.

1. Describe two ethical concerns when treating moral injury;

2. Differentiate moral injury from PTSD; and,
