Summary:All mental health professionals and students need to be prepared for the wide range of professional ethical scenarios they will inevitably face. Ethical codes and decision-making models are essential to professional preparation, but students and clinicians need more than codes and models. Ethical practice also involves individual practitioners who bring their own individual and cultural backgrounds into the therapeutic process. To help prepare professionals and students, John Sommers-Flanagan and Veronica Johnson focus on three topics central to ethical counseling and psychotherapy practice: (1) interpersonal or cultural self-awareness; (2) self-awareness and competence in making referrals; and (3) boundaries and competence in the digital age through thought-provoking interviews and skill-building counseling vignettes (including a "Be That Client" demonstration), students and professionals will gain a better understanding of how to use competence, empathy, and self-reflection as tools for becoming ethical clinicians.
