Marital and Family Therapy

Category - Law & Ethics

In order to aid in self-awareness, a practitioner who is working with LGBT individuals must:
  1. Play devil’s advocate
  2. Reflect social stigmas in order to build resistance
  3. Change their assumptions and attitudes about LGBT individuals
  4. Change their moral perspective on LGBT issues
Explanation
Answer - C - Playing devil’s advocate may not always help your clients; reflecting stigma is easy for some people, only because they have never known the opposite side of the coin, but we must keep in mind that we cannot expect our fellow therapists to change their mind with regard to moral stance, either. Instead, any therapist can choose to change their assumptions and attitudes to make for a more caring, responsible, helping professional.
