Applied Ethics and Decision Making in Mental Health
- Michael Moyer - University of Texas, San Antonio, USA
- Charles Crews - Texas Tech University, USA
September 2016 | 464 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
“Moyer and Crews move beyond simply presenting and explaining the ethical code. In this book, they challenge counselors-in-training to grapple with their own values and understand how ethical decision-making is influenced by the lens through which they see the world as much as it is influenced by the actual code.”
–Kristi Gibbs, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga
Applied Ethics and Decision Making in Mental Health covers professional issues and ethical decision making related to the codes of ethics of the American Counseling Association, the American Psychological Association, and the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy in an easy-to-read format, connecting ethical standards to real-life scenarios. This book not only focuses on the various aspects of legal issues and codes of ethics, but also includes ethical decision making models and exploration into the philosophy behind ethical decision making.
