Consultation
Consultation is actually an ethical requirement that is especially necessary if you have an ethical dilemma.
No one wants to face ethical challenges in their practice, but you can be sure you have someone to run your ideas and questions through.
Don't go through ethical dilemmas by yourself. You can reach out to me, your supervisor, a colleague you went to grad school with, or and most definitely the company you use to purchase your liability insurance.
ACA Code of Ethics
The ACA Code of Ethics was last revised in 2014.
The ACA Code of Ethics serves six main purposes:
1. The Code sets forth the ethical obligations of ACA members and provides guidance intended to inform the ethical
practice of professional counselors.
2. The Code identifies ethical considerations relevant to professional counselors and counselors-in-training.
3. The Code enables the association to clarify for current and prospective members, and for those served by members,
the nature of the ethical responsibilities held in common by its members.
4. The Code serves as an ethical guide designed to assist members in constructing a course of action that best serves
those utilizing counseling services and establishes expectations of conduct with a primary emphasis on the role of
the professional counselor.
5. The Code helps to support the mission of ACA.
6. The standards contained in this Code serve as the basis for processing inquiries and ethics complaints
concerning ACA members.
