Since it first appeared in 1993, this highly acclaimed text has been the leading guide to counselling ethics. Developed in line with the BACP's own guidelines, its discussion of a wide range of ethical problems and advice on identifying and resolving these dilemmas has made it an invaluable resource. In this fully revised and updated edition, the author takes account of the changing legal, professional and cultural context of counselling and considers recent developments in law concerning the implementation of the Human Rights Act and child protection that impact on counselling.
