Marital and Family Therapy

Category - Ongoing

You are an intern who works for free at a non-profit agency and you have just received an offer for full-time employment with your local county health department. In order to ensure that your clients at the non-profit continue receiving the best care, you decide to:
  1. Keep both jobs, even if it means one will suffer
  2. Decline the job offer
  3. Work to facilitate transition of your caseload to appropriate therapists
  4. Don’t tell the clients that you’re leaving
Explanation
Answer - C - Transitions are difficult, but we need to be prepared for them to come at any time. This includes telling clients when we need to move on. Keeping both jobs is impractical and declining the offer that pays would only work if you were independently wealthy, which, for purposes of this question, we have assumed you are not. Avoiding a transition is one of the worst things we can do. Instead, work to make it smooth and efficient in the best way possible that is client-centered.
