Ethics Codes Comparison Paper: Code of Ethics Comparison between AACC and ACA Cheryl Walsh Liberty University Abstract The American Counseling Association (ACA) and the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC) both make provision for an understanding of ethical practices in counseling through their code of ethics. The codes of ethics presented by both are to provide clarity of ethical practices that protect not only the client but the counselor and the profession of counseling as well. This report will identify similarities and differences between the AACC and ACA code of ethics in general as well as three specific ethical topics chosen by the author. The three topics addressed in this report will be client confidentiality, sexual intimacy between client and counselor, and referral of clients to another counselor or agency. Code of Ethics Comparison between AACC and ACA When considering similarities and differences of ethical codes one should perhaps begin by clarifying what ethics are as well as the purpose of a code of ethics.
A/601/7635 Research Methodologies in counselling 1. Understand the purposes of research in counselling 2.1 Explain the importance of research for the counsellor. I believe that the main importance of research for the counsellor is that it makes a massive contribution to the quality of service that a counsellor can offer their clients. By continually staying up date on new research that is available a counsellor is able to gain new knowledge and expertise that can improve and enhance their practise. Counselling is seen as a fairly isolated profession, this highlights the need to share research and to create an open book attitude for the practise of counselling.
Elements of a recognised framework by Cormack (2000) will be used as a guideline through the critique process. Critique is defined by Polit et al (2000) as a careful critical appraisal of the strengths and limitations of a piece of research. They state that a written critique should serve as a guide to researchers and practitioners, and should help to advance a particular area of knowledge. The critique should also help those who are practising nursing, to decide how the findings from a study can be best incorporated into practice (Nieswiadomy, 2002). Knapp (1998) points out that if research is to provide convincing evidence on which to base practice, it must be capable of withstanding scrutiny regarding the quality and relevance of the researchers work.

Linda Potter A Personalised Induction Will Always Be More Effective Discuss This essay will explore the statement in the title that a personalised induction will always be more effective when used in the context of a Hypnotherapy session between Therapist and client. I will explore within this essay my own personal belief that personalising an induction is vitally important for the client. My reason for this belief is that I believe each person is unique and different in their own way. Therefore it is imperative to treat each person in an holistic or all round way. I will also discuss modalities, or the process that occurs when the brain receives information from our senses and how this represents itself internally.
credits authors for factual statements. A reference page is included at the end of the article for researchers to use as needed. When stating what the research purpose is, writers should clearly and logically flow from this idea throughout the article. Lin et al. states that they will test their hypothesis by placing different clients in either the forgiveness therapy or the alcohol and drug counseling programs.
It serves five main purposes: 1) clarifying the nature of ethical responsibilities to its members, 2) helping support the mission of the association, 3) establishing principles that define ethical behavior and best practices, 4) serves as an ethical guide to help members construct a professional course of action and 5) serves as a basis for processing ethical complaints and inquiries (American Counseling Association (ACA), 2005). However, they should be considered by counselors in arriving at a professional and ethical course of action. The Ethical Standards are set enforceable rules for conduct of counselors. Most of these standards are written so they apply to counselors that have various roles within the field. The ACA enforces members and student residents to comply with the standards of their ethics code and the procedures and rules that are used to enforce them.

RUNNING HEAD: Existentialism Existential Psychotherapy: Theory, Practice, and Research Nadine Duckworth EDUC 5705 - Counselling Psychology: Theory October 29, 2007 Existential Psychotherapy: Theory, Practice, and Research Introduction Existential therapists assist clients to develop a deeper understanding about life, enhance their self-knowledge, and become the authors of their own reality. Existential psychotherapy can be seen as a tapestry of intersecting practices, all oriented around the concern of the lived human experience (Cooper, 2003). In this paper, I will explore the history and philosophical ideas of existentialist theory, examine its descriptive and prescriptive value with regard to therapeutic practice, and evaluate the research in support of it. I will conclude with the proposition that existentialism is a very broad theory that has many potential applications, and is in need of more research to support its practices. History of Existentialist Theory As long as humankind has been consciously aware of its own existence, there have been existential ponderings.
