Synopsis

Up-to-date and comprehensive, *including the ACA 2014 Code of Ethics,* this practical best-selling text provides students with the basis for discovering their own guidelines for helping within the broad limits of professional codes of ethics and divergent theoretical positions. Respected authors Gerald Corey, Marianne Corey, Cindy Corey, and Patrick Callanan raise what they consider to be central issues, present a range of diverse views on the issues, discuss their position, and provide opportunities for students to refine their thinking and actively develop their own position. ISSUES AND ETHICS IN THE HELPING PROFESSIONS, 9th Edition, explores 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? With new material in every chapter and an emphasis on critical thinking, the ninth edition is useful for students as well as practicing professionals.

Review

"The textbook provides counselor trainees with a no-nonsense analysis of the relevant ethical issues they will face in their clinical work. It is written in clear and concise language and provides its readers with wonderful opportunities for self-exploration and professional development. The authors have done a great job of providing supportive research and of integrating this research into relevant practice issues. The book utilizes a strengths-based approach to addressing ethical and legal issues faced by professional counselors and highlights the importance of self-awareness, discernment, and respect for diversity when addressing these issues in the workplace."

"[This book is] an effective exploration of the complexity of ethical codes and standards for counselors, with effective experiential activities, including inventories for students, related activities, and CD case profiles."
