Sample Text
"It is unethical for a practitioner to offer a client blanket assurance that the addition of other roles has no effect on their professional relationship. Sometimes merely suggesting a dual relationship, much less entering into one, causes an immediate change in how two people relate. When dual relationships develop more fully, such as in a friendship, the initial professional relationship may take on a lesser role and even perhaps end by mutual consent. It is impossible to know whether what can be gained is more valuable than what might be lost." From page 95 of The Ethics of Touch (2004) by Benjamin & Sohnen-Moe
