I have a case where a client is requesting a non-traditional treatment option that I'm not familiar with. How do you approach these requests? Level of research, where you seek insight etc?

When a client requests a non-traditional treatment option, I approach it with an open mind and a commitment to research. I typically begin by reading up on the treatment and speaking with other professionals who have experience with it. I also make sure to have a respectful conversation with the client to ensure that their expectations are realistic and that the treatment is right for them.

It’s a great opportunity to learn and have the opportunity to help others as well ! You got this !!!

I would let the patient know that you are not familiar with this treatment and don't feel comfortable prescribing it or doing it. This saves you from a lawsuit and the patient from any harm. You can get education and training on it in the meantime

Weekly Hot take. Accessibility=/= easy mode. I know it would take alot more time and resources to develop but more games sould come with accessibility features like color blind mode and maybe a bullet time for jumps. I am not a person with disabilities but i believe Celeste did a pretty good job at adding some of these features. I know it's hard to account for every type of disability but we can at least start with the most common ones.
