A Fantastic Resource for Students and Teachers of Counseling

The Doctor from Botswana, below, is exactly right, and this book is so superb in its organisation and function that it deserves more elucidation. Highly, highly recommended for all student counseling programs! (This is a RARE find!) It will, necessarily, have an American orientation, but the general benefits are applicable to the world-wide audience, and can be adapted. CHAPTER 1: The Counseling Profession CHAPTER 2: Overview of Law and Ethics CHAPTER 3: The Counseling Relationship (Including Consent to Treatment, Monitoring, Fees, Dual Relationships, Consultation With Colleagues) CHAPTER 4: Protecting Client Confidences CHAPTER 5: Avoiding Liability CHAPTER 6: Managing Your Counseling Practice SUGGESTED READINGS REFERENCES APPENDICES (ACA Code of Ethics, ACA Insurance Trust, Checklist) Highly recommended.
