Ethical and Legal Viewpoint

Write, from your future perspective of being an ethical and law-abiding counselor, a 1,000-1,250-word paper in which you incorporate your ethical and legal view on the following topics:

  1. Volunteerism – What standards do you need to uphold if you are in a voluntary position or providing free/pro bono work?
  2. Self-disclosure – Would you disclose personal information to a client? If so, when and how is it appropriate?
  3. Objectivity – Why is it important to remain objective for your client?
  4. Self-care – How will you balance your life?
  5. Spirituality – How will you maintain your spirituality in and out of practice?

Be sure to cite professional code of ethics and/or articles to support your statements.
