Counselor Ethics - Ethical Counselors (3 hours)

$40.00

This 3 hour course by Charlotte Chapman reviews the ethical dilemmas faced by today's counselors and treatment professionals.  This course will take you beyond the basic understanding of the ethical principles that guide the chemical dependency field. It will focus not on the code but rather on a different approach to the study of Ethics. You will be asked to examine how you developed your own personal code of ethics and how you apply that to your practice and to your professional Code of Ethics. Information will also be given on the guidelines for ethical practice as well as methods for ethical decision making and legal issues and concerns. An exploration of some of the areas of ethical dilemmas will be accomplished through case reviews.
