Ethics are an essential part of your practice, and are something you’ll have to think about when it comes to working with clients.
The key points of this discussion include:
Ethics provide an agreed upon right and wrong within the therapy room.
Your ethical framework will help to guide your actions.
There are ethics that are counselling specific.
They set out standard expectations.
If you receive a complaint, your ethical body will ask how you used the ethical code to make your decisions. Use your ethical body’s code as an external opinion when making your decisions.
Make your ethical framework available to your client - this transparency in your practice will help you to build trust.
Your ethical framework will provide personal policies for you to work towards.
As always, keeping client notes safe and confidential is another branch of your ethical responsibilities as a counsellor.
