Question

Please help me answer the following questions. Make sure to justify your answers. You may cite an example to prove your points. 1. You have been treating a married couple conjointly for about 6 months. The wife arrives early for the session and tells you that she is thinking of leaving her husband as she has been involved with another man. She also asks you not to tell her husband. You have not previously discussed your policy regarding your secrets. 2. You have attempted to help a client for over two years with little or no success. Ethically, what do you think should you do? 3. You are the head psychotherapist at a sexual abuse treatment agency. Anna is one of your counselors and you give her a performance rating on a yearly basis. Anna has been having panic attacks daily at home for almost a month and her physician feels that counseling rather than medicine is indicated. Now – for the first time – she has a terrible panic attack at work. If you do not see her the nearest counselor is 150 miles away. What should you do? 4. What factors and or ethical guidelines that must be considered when conducting psychotherapy/counseling? Give 5 and discuss. 5. Why is it essential that psychotherapist/counselors follow ethical guidelines? What are these guidelines intended to do? What do you imagine the practice of psychotherapy/counseling would be like without the use of ethical guidelines?
