Welcome to the Companion Website for The Ethical and Professional Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy by Len Sperry in collaboration with
Maureen Duffy, Ph.D., Michael Frain, Ph.D., Katherine Hendricks, B.S.., Larry Kontosh, Ph.D., Alex O. Miranda, Ph.D., Paul R. Peluso, Ph.D., and Linda Webb, Ph.D.
These learning resources found here are keyed to the textbook, and are intended to enhance your knowledge of professional ethics and your experience in making ethical and professional decisions, particularly dealing with ethical considerations that involve professional codes.
These resources include learning objectives and review questions and cases for self-study and personal review.* Three types of out-of-class activities are found here which are designed to complement other course learning activities. Included are Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ, Short Answer Essay Questions, and Case Vignettes. [You’ll note that case vignettes are included in Chapters 6-14 only]. These case vignettes will increase your familiarity as well as your capacity to apply professional ethical codes to specific professional and ethical situations in different professional counseling and psychotherapeutic settings. You can have internet access to several the relevant professional ethical codes and guidelines by clicking on the Weblinks section in each chapters.
It is my heartfelt hope that the textbook exercises on this website will foster your development as a counselor or therapist. I wish you the best with your career plans.
Len Sperry, M.D., Ph.D.
*Your instructor may choose to assign short answer questions and/or case vignettes as homework assignments from this learning resource. |
