 Further, looking into the challenges and issues in independent practice, a counselor may face different problems related to independent practice, especially during psychotherapy, managed care, advertising of services, higher risk of inappropriate role-blending, etc. However, some unique unethical issues can also come up with time to time and they could be very unique in offer. At times, we cannot foresee what kind of problems can come up in independent practice, but sometimes they are very interesting and sometimes they can be very painful. But one has to take care of all of them very sensitively. The absence of peer collaborator may lead to the less social comparison because this is very much particular if we are not comparing ourselves with any other colleague and we are working in an independent setting and we are taking ourselves as a solo flight and we assume that we are not competing with anyone. So, sometimes the less comparison also creates an issue and you are trying to improve yourself with a continuous effort, you are trying to refrain from it, which is probably not a good solution. But when we are doing independent work, we do not need any professional consultation or guidance which is suppressing our ability to learn further and to grow further. For example, in hospitals, if there is a complicated case, a case conference presentation is held on it and all psychologists give their independent opinions after listening to the presentation. They tell us what can be the comorbidities or what aspects were not properly addressed in history taking and things like that. So, the main person who deals with it, the psychologist who presents the case or leads it, he learns a lot and improves his things in the light of it. Similarly, if different psychologists practice in a hospital, they generally discuss the cases where different psychiatrists or they come up with some better solutions most of the time. So, in such a situation, when we are doing independent practice, this opportunity of a professional growth is minimized. This situation mostly results in failure to always think carefully about the manner in which one practice and manages cases because the diagnosis that a single individual made himself and he did not take any feedback on it or sometimes there was an error in it. So, there is no one else who could rectify that mistake. The independent practitioner who may have an administrative assistant or other employees who require careful supervision generally does not have the luxury of paid vacations or sick days. If an individual who practices an independent practice becomes unavailable for any reason, he becomes ill, he needs a leave or he wants to leave, so in that situation, this becomes very trivial that if a single person, if a single solo person is working, if he leaves the scene, then why are there patients in the queue who want to continuously see, who have to follow-ups, who have to have sessions, who is going to take care of them. A therapist practice psychotherapy, for example, in its own private office and the automobile accident disabled him for a period of probably three months and he would not be able to come and do practice. So, in this situation, there will be no coverage for him that anyone else could be available on his or her space to see the clients. So, depending on client's individual needs, this also presents a serious ethical oversight. For three weeks, the mental health professional cannot see the client. He is disabled and his cause is genuine. The client, who you are giving a therapy, who is systematically sensitizing a phobia and his case gets stuck in the middle, the effort you have done on him will be wasted. Because the phobic thoughts he has again, he will start coming. If there is a patient with generalized anxiety, he may not get any help for three weeks. So, for that, panic attacks can be added to his illness and many other examples like that. Independent practitioner is also most respectable to face the problems associated with handling and management of emotionally troubled patients. The client who does not fee bill could be a one person. For instance, others who are not able to come on the schedule appointments and similarly, there are some clients who are continuously sending messages or calls repeatedly. So, this at times becomes very difficult for one person who is independently managing all these things. In another case, this is very interesting. For example, you have created a setup and on a small level like young psychologists who want to be entrepreneurs, they create a small setup with some services which is not much publicized probably and people don't know much about that situation that exactly what services are being done here. People don't even put big boards to save money and they don't register their company. That is another ethical issue. But the concept of a clinic, people can get into trouble about what kind of clinic it is and probably they can come there to take some other services. There is an example that a woman comes in and he considers that this clinic is a gynaecologist clinic. So, sometimes these kinds of things also happen and we often see these kinds of experiences in independent practice. And those people who do not know much about psychotherapy, they assume that a single person who is having a degree in psychology can deal anyone who is either having autism or probably having the drug dependence case maybe having dysthymia or he is going through some serious kind of psychopathological behavior, like delinquency or any other thing. So, always remember that all things have their own trained specialists and they can only deal with them. For instance, a therapist doesn't necessarily have to deal with psychopathology and he can even give speech therapy. But in general public, there is no awareness of this and in this scenario, they assume that an independent practitioner who is sitting in a clinic can provide their solution to all of the problems they are having.
