1. After graduating, a fellow student in your CACREP-accredited counseling program takes and
passes the National Counselor Exam (NCE). He then rents office space and advertises in the
local newspaper saying “Individual, Group, and Family Counseling by a Nationally Certified
Counselor.” Is this ethical? Is this professional? Is this legal in your state? Do the laws vary
from state to state? Should you say anything to the student?
2. A colleague of yours runs into a former client at a social get-together. The client asks your
colleague out and the colleague accepts the offer after reflecting on the fact that the client has
not been in counseling for the last five years. Is this ethical? Is this professional? Is this legal?
Is this wise? Should you say anything to your colleague?
3. A licensed school counselor, who is not a licensed professional counselor, advertises that he
is doing “short-term individual counseling.” He does this part-time at a local private practice
clinic. Is this ethical? Is this professional? Is this legal? Should you say anything to him?
4. A counselor you know has decided to try out a new technique involving extreme verbal
confrontations of the client. You are familiar with the literature on client outcomes and this
technique does not seem to be in line with the research. Is he acting ethically? Professionally?
Legally? What is your professional/ethical obligation?
5. As a counselor at a mental health center you work daily with clients who are taking
medications. One of your clients who has been taking Prozac continues to tell you that she is
quite depressed. You say to her, “No problem, you need your medication changed, I’ll arrange
that,” and you refer her to the staff psychiatrist. Have you responded to the client in an
ethical manner? Have you responded in a professional manner? Do you have other options?
6. You are personally opposed to the killing of animals for fur coats, when one of your clients
walks in with a full-length new mink coat. She says to you, “Isn’t this coat gorgeous,” at which
point you respond by saying, “How many minks were killed to make that?” Have you
responded ethically? Professionally? What should you do if your personal moral code
interferes with you ethical guidelines?
7. The same person as in vignette 6 goes on to tell you that the minks that were raised for her
coat were raised at an illegal mink ranch. In fact, you realize the treatment of the animals was
probably horrible. Do you have any legal obligation to report this illegal ranch?
8. You have decided to forego licensure as a professional counselor, and instead of doing
therapy, you offer “educational workshops and periodic individual meetings.” You advertise
these as “coaching sessions” and state that you will offer “positive-goal-directed, short-term
motivational sessions.” Can you practice like this without a license? Is this counseling? Can
you be sued for practicing without a license?
9. A client of yours who has been working on becoming more assertive with her spouse and at
work finds out that she is being underpaid at work for the same services that males in her
position make. She asks you to write a letter for her, which she will sign, to send to her boss.
Is this appropriate given the Advocacy Competencies? Are you working on “behalf” of your
client? What implications might such an action have in your client’s life?
10. Despite having little or no training in working with Ethiopian clients, you decide to take on,
in family counseling, an Ethiopian family who has just moved to this country. Is this ethical?
Is this professional? Is this wise? Should you work with this client? What alternatives do you
have?
