Responding to Ethical and Legal Issues
Review the case examples corresponding to your specialization in the media piece,
Responding to Ethical and Legal Issues – Case Study, and then select an ethical decision-making model. To aid in selection, first review pages 15–18 of the
Ethical, Legal, and Professional Issues in Counseling text and this week’s readings. You can also choose an ethical decision-making model from a current, peer-reviewed article in a professional counseling journal of your choice. Some examples include
Practitioner’s Guide to Ethical Decision Making [PDF]
(Forester-Miller & Davis, 2016) and the
Intercultural Model of Ethical Decision Making
(Luke, Goodrich, & Gilbride, 2013). Use the Responding to Ethical and Legal Issues template, linked below, as a guide for constructing the following sections of your paper:
