Product Description

Review

`This edition retains the same informative and accessible style and broadly the same order of contents as the First Edition, which makes it easy for readers to track down key changes. The author's extensive experience in the field of ethics in counselling and his experience as Chair of BACP underpin this updated, essential and authoritative Second Edition' - British Journal of Guidance & Counselling

'Tim Bond has done a great service to the counselling profession by writing, and now updating, this book… His particular strength must surely be his clarity in acquainting counsellors with the complexities of British law. After an introduction, he starts with an exploration of the origins and scope of counselling. He then exemplifies cases in which a counsellor's personal and professional values collide. He has collected together a host of ethical dilemmas that counsellors might have to face' - Naomi Stadlen, Journal of the Society for Existential Analysis

This highly acclaimed guide to the major responsibilities which trainees and counsellors in practice must be aware of before working with clients has now been fully revised and updated. The Second Edition examines issues fundamental to the process of counselling. A wide range of ethical problems are discussed and advice is given for resolving these dilemmas.

Tim Bond outlines the values and ethical principles inherent in counselling and points out that the counsellor is at the centre of a series of responsibilities: to the client, to him/herself as a counsellor and to the wider community. He covers topics such as: confidentiality; legal aspects of counselling; working with suicidal clients; false or recovered memory; record- keeping; and the importance of adequate supervision.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent coverage of Ethics and Standards in Counselling, 20 Dec 2001
By A Customer
Tim Bond has produced an excellent work covering the major ethical issues within counselling. The book deals with all the major topics relevant to the ethical practise of counselling.
The second edition has usefully updated information which now provides one of the few comprehensive overviews of this emerging discipline.
With well illustrated cases, Tim Bond has provided an invaluable tool for counsellors and those who teach the subject. While covering all the main issues, Tim Bond has provided a comprehensive text book which also remains readable and therefore of practical use to the busy professional.
Tim Bond has illustarted the book with both UK and USA examples, from both the Legal and Professional perspectives.
Coverage includes material drawn from the largest UK counselling organisation - the British Association for Counselling (BACP), as well as the British Psychological Society (BPS) and the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP).
This second edition has developed the book in terms of updating material and offering a good overview of the topic.
From the UK perspective and in particular the BACP viewpoint, Tim Bond's work is hard to beat - as he has been central to the BACP development of Standards and Ethics, chairing the committe for many of it's most formative years.
It should be noted that Tim Bond has been commissioned by BACP to facilitate the development of new a Standards and Ethics Code for 2002, which speaks highly of his standing within this specialism within the counselling field.
This book or its equilivent is a must read for every counsellor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful! A must for any trainee counsellor/psychotherapist!, 5 Jun 2007
By Helen Louise Catt (Hampshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I found this book easy to read and very practical as a trainee Counselling psychologist/psychotherapist. It will be invaluable to anyone in or entering the field in dealing with the ethical dilemmas we all have to face with our clients. The book includes a very practical six step process to ethical problem solving and takes into account the codes of conduct/guidelines of our professional bodies as well as law, personal ethics, therapeautic model values, agency policy and moral philosophy. Really comprehensive and best of all easy to read and implement!

5.0 out of 5 stars Contracts & ethics clearly explained, 12 May 2007
By Jenni Muller (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
The difficult area of contracts and ethics are thoroughly and clearly explained. It is made more palatable by having relevant case material to illustrate ethical dilemmas. This is an invaluable reference tool for counsellors.
