Description

or this week's critical thinking discussion, please read the excerpt from the Court Case Involving a Therapist's Refusal to Counsel Homosexual Clients found below.

Begin a respectful and scholarly discussion based on the questions posed in the Commentary section of the court case excerpt. Address each question as if they were posed to a social worker.

Also consider how NASW Code Ethics would direct professional behavior. Since this topic can be a "hot topic," I want to make sure to remind everyone about profession etiquette despite your personal position on this issue.

As you answer the questions in the court case, please be aware that your answer to the question that asks, "To what degree protect you from an ethical or legal violation?" should include how the NASW can help protect you from a legal or ethical violation.

Your Tasks:

Please submit one original post (400-500 words) and respond to at least one peer post (75-150 words). Cite the text when appropriate for the discussion prompt above. Cite at least two relevant peer-reviewed journal articles to achieve maximum points for this assignment. (Articles may be cited in either your initial posting or your responses to peers.) Be sure that you have addressed all parts of the required response.

When you respond to peers, respond as if you were dialoguing with them, so be sure that your posts are related to their initial postings. Your posting needs to deepen the discussion by adding an additional perspective, sharing new information, or asking an additional question to get your colleague to think more critically about the issue - it should not be a new posting on your part that doesn't connect to the initial posting or a mere "I agree with everything you've said" statement.

Prior to submitting your posts, check them for appropriate grammar, usage and spelling. In the field of social work it is important to be able to communicate effectively when writing as well as when speaking. Errors in these areas will result in a lower grade for your discussion posts.

Tip: Please remember to add a subject line to your post. Use descriptive subject lines for your posts; some find it easier to write the subject line after writing the post.

LEGAL AND ETHICAL ISSUES IN COUNSELLING

Introduction
In the field of counseling, many issues arise especially when there are conflicting issues based on
religious beliefs. The sexual orientation topic is a hotly contested one in the current generation
with some of the counselors feeling that they should not give counseling to people of same-sex
orientation (Sarno, et al. 2015). Others believe that they must assist anyone who comes their way
irrespective of the differences between their religious stands. This paper shall be looking to
answer the questions posed in our case study for b...
