Ethical Framework
All professional counsellors work to a Code of Ethics which are designed to give maximum protection and benefit to the client.
I choose the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) Ethical framework, which embraces a set of values, moral qualities and principles such as trustworthiness, autonomy and justice.
Full details of the code can be seen at on the BACP website.
As a member of the BACP, I take these ethics seriously – I can quite rightly loose my membership if I break the code.
