网爆门 members have a contractual commitment to work in accordance with the听Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions. These resources are not contractually binding, but are intended to support practice听by providing general information on particular fields of work听in the context of the core ethical principles, values and personal moral qualities that we promote.

Specific issues in practice will vary depending on clients, particular models of working, the context of the work and the kind of therapeutic intervention provided. As specific issues arising from work with clients are often complex, we always recommend discussing practice dilemmas with a line manager or supervisor, or consulting a suitably qualified and experienced legal or other relevant professional.
