Should a counselor remain value-objective about controversial issues   presented by a client (such as abortion, suicide, adultery, drug use,   domestic violence, child abuse, etc.)? Some counselors might argue   that they should not express their values or criticize their clients   for these behaviors, while others would say that expressing moral   judgment is appropriate.

Consider the information above and Chapter 3 of the textbook. Write   a 1,000-1,250-word paper addressing the following:

1. Analyze the ethical implications of a counselor expressing     their values to a client.
2. Identify actions a counselor     might take when confronted with clients they find difficult to treat     due to differences in values/beliefs regarding one or more of the     following issues: abortion, suicide, adultery, drug use, domestic     violence, child abuse
3. Some of the legislation and     government policies related to clinical mental health   counseling
4. Identify factors that might lead a counselor to     consider referring a client to another counselor.
5. Describe steps a counselor should take if referral is not     an option.
6. Be sure to use the ACA and NAADAC codes of     ethics as guidelines when constructing your paper.
7. Include     three additional scholarly resources in your paper in addition to     the course textbook.
