NCE / CPCE Counselor

Category - Professional and Ethical Issues

A counselor is having a difficult time making progress with a client toward the goals initially determined in the treatment plan. What are some options available to rectify this concern?
  1. Consultation with other counselors in the practice
  2. Terminate working with the client
  3. Asking another counselor to sit in on a session (with client permission)
  4. A and C
Explanation
Answer: D - When a counselor is not making progress with a client, many options are available to help resolve the issue. Most likely, a consultation with other counselors in the practice, including the lead counselor, may engender additional insights and ideas to move the client toward progression. If consultation is not helpful, another counselor may be asked to observe a session and provide feedback. Usually, terminating a relationship with the client is not the answer, unless it is determined, through much discussion with client and lead clinician, that another counselor would be a better fit for the client and his/her concerns.
