This text is an examination of the role of the therapist as
ethicist and the ways in which the ethical convictions of both
therapist and client contribute to the practical process of
psychotherapy. As psychotherapy strives to establish itself as a
"Profession", practitioners are increasingly focusing on the issue
of ethics as they attempt to agree on guidelines and standards for
professional practice. Alan Tjeltveit argues that any discussion of
professional and ethical practice in psychotherapy is inadequate if
carried out in ignorance of or in isolation from traditional
ethical theories. He applies this approach to issues such as: the
role of therapy in society; the goals and outcomes of
psychotherapy; techniques and practices; the existence and
operation of values; and the intellectual and social context in
which therapy takes place. In the second part of the book, he uses
clinical examples and case studies to relate this theoretical
discussion to clinical practice.
