Value Neutrality In The Field Of Counseling
VALUES NEUTRALITY PAPER
Fenote’ Cherry
In the field of Counseling, I feel that in the area of one’s morals and beliefs it is imperative that one’s
Values and moral beliefs are not imposed on the client. The topic is quite problematic as it is very
Difficult not to express one’s true core beliefs and their morals in making observations and making
Assessments. The topics which seem to be very controversial such as Abortion, Divorce, and Sexual
Orientation may propose many conflicting viewpoints. In the therapeutic process one may want to remain objective , so that one would not influence the
Client in the area of his decision making being persuaded by the counselor. It is indeed unethical to
Induce one’s beliefs
