Customer Reviews

Learn about counseling ethics

I don't really have anything to compare this book with, but it gave me a pretty good idea of counseling ethics, laws and morality. It's a very good book, it's not written in a complicated learned language, so it's pretty understandable. And it has an ACA Code of Ethics in the appendix.

Reviewing Remley's Updated 2nd edition

Love the book. Well written and easy to understand. Book is not too heavy to carry around and read anytime or placewhere. The reviews and case studies are excellent and to the point.

Ethical, Legal, and Professional Issues in Counseling

This is a very practical text for students studying to be counselors. It would also be a broad, practical resource for all counselors when help is needed in addressing questions and issues that will be faced in the counseling profession.

Text for class

This is actually our text. I am currently enrolled in a master's program. I would say that it is our professor's depth of knowledge and her personality that makes the class enjoyable, but the text is a great reference and certainly a place to start gaining insight into the pitfalls and legal aspects of ethics in the field of psychology. If you are in a class make sure you check out YOUR state's laws concerning responsibility and informed consent!!!! If you ever thought it might be fun to be a lawyer, this should thrill you! Name of the game...CYA!!!!

Great Deal!

This was a wonderful experience. I ordered the book on Friday and received it the following Tuesday, after a holiday, no less! The used book is in great condition and even with shipping I saved over 50% I'd recommend this to anyone.
