Overview

Written by 2 counseling professors, 1 an attorney and the other an expert in ethics, Ethical, Legal and Professional Issues in Counseling walks you through the ethical, legal and professional challenges you'll encounter in your career. It includes numerous case studies to highlight ethical and legal situations faced by counselors as well as practical advice on how to resolve these situations.

The 6th Edition focuses squarely on the counseling profession, as opposed to psychiatry or other helping professions.
