Document Summary

Chapter 3 - values and the helping relationship. Helps explore your motivations and understand your own belief system: if counsellors rarely reflect on their own values and beliefs, it is difficult for the client to feel comfortable examining their own values in a therapeutic setting. Ethics of imposing your values on clients: value imposition: counsellors directly attempting to influence client to adopt values, attitudes, beliefs and behaviours. Can be active or passive influence: can be difficult for addiction or school counsellors, may want to improve own beliefs on what the client should be doing. Clients are looking for support and understanding, not judgment. Knowing you can not work through your value differences may discourage them. The conflict may not appear until later on in the counselling. Referrals should only be considered when you lack the skills needed to deal with the client"s issue, and will not help them explore their beliefs and values.
