Q: What is my liability and best practices as an licensed professional clinical counselor, minister and hands-on healer?
I have releases/legal docs for both LPCC and hands-on healer. Concerned if there is a liability with the State Board, Scope of Practice, Insurance Companies, asking and quoting/sharing hand-on healing results and testimonials.
A: Look at what boards govern what activities. Problem is when you collect money. Need to see how your state treats such things-with all the crystal therapy etc should be some statement you can use stating that none of it is medically prove, that if they continue to have symptoms they should follow up with a medical practitioner. See if you can get liability coverage.
