Chapter 3 discusses the ethical principles and issues involved in the professional practice of counseling psychology. It is important to note that the specialty adheres to the principles and ethical code of conduct of the American Psychological Association, which apply to all aspects of professional practice in professional psychology, and that, thus, there are no specialty-specific principles or a code of ethical conduct specific to counseling psychology. It also presents the most salient and frequently emerging standards of practice as well as the management of risk in counseling psychology practice, along with sample foundational and functional competencies in the knowledge and application of ethics in psychology with some examples of how these principles are used in the profession.

Chapter 10 discusses how competence in professional psychology requires knowledge and adherence to the Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct put forth by the APA, most recently revised in 2002, and how the challenges for psychologists who must navigate ‘grey’ areas and embrace these principles in day-to-day practice can differ from specialty to specialty. It also provides a unique view of these ‘grey’ areas frequently encountered in cognitive behavioural practice and offers insights regarding how best to direct clinical decisions toward these ethical issues.
