Up-to-date and challenging, this best-selling book is a practical manual that helps future and current professionals deal with ethical issues that they will confront at the various stages in
their development. The authors provide readers with the basis for discovering their own guidelines within the broad limits of professional codes of ethics and divergent theoretical positions.
They raise what they consider to be central issues, present a range of diverse views on these issues, discuss their position, and present multiple opportunities for readers to refine their own
thinking and actively develop their own position. The authors explore such questions as: What role do the therapist's personal values play in the counseling relationship? What ethical
responsibilities and rights do clients and therapists have? What considerations are involved in adapting counseling practice to diverse client populations?
