Sanders (2013) states “though technically not held to the same standards as professional
therapists, noncertified pastoral counselors and lay counselors have a responsibility to know as
much as they can about the ethics of counseling. At a minimum, they should be aware of
common ethical pitfalls in counseling. In this way, they will be more likely to recognize potential
problems and consult with supervisors and know when to refer to others with more training” (pg.
24).
Use the AACC Code of Ethics (linked in the Essay Resources section) as a guide to the scenario
below.
Choose one of the four brief scenarios on page 25 in the text to answer the following questions.
Use the textbook and 2 research journal articles of your choosing (use the Liberty University
Online Library resources linked in the Essay Resources section).
**Direct quotes are not permitted in the essay assignments. Please paraphrase into your own
words when citing**.
What are some possible ethical red flag(s) in the chosen scenario?
Has the counselor already acted in any way that is unethical? If so, explain.
Project into the scenario since all details may not be present. What could have been done
differently to avoid the ethical breaches? Provide the code of ethics section number (ex: 1-
122) where applicable.

Since Christian counseling is a calling, how might ethics be an even stronger consideration
