1) A client initially consented to career counselling, but in the fourth session the work shifts toward childhood trauma memories. What is the most ethical next step?

The client says, “We can continue, no need to explain anything again. I already signed the form.”

2) A client says, “I am not going to hurt my ex-partner, but tonight I will wait outside her office until she talks to me.” Which response best integrates confidentiality and safety?

The client becomes tense, refuses to leave the topic and says, “You must keep this private because I am only asking for advice.”

3) A counsellor wants to use an automatic AI note-taking app during sessions because it saves time. What is the best ethical decision before using it?

The app stores audio and transcripts on an external server, but the counsellor believes the notes will be more accurate.

4) A current client offers the counsellor a free training hall for an Emocare workshop and says, “Please accept; it will make me feel valuable.” What is the most ethical response?

The counsellor also conducts paid training programmes, and accepting the offer would give a direct business benefit.

5) An adult client asks to bring their mother into the next session “so she can understand my anxiety.” What should the counsellor do first?

The client says the mother pays the fee, but the client is unsure how much personal information should be shared in front of her.

6) A counsellor realises that a new client is also a close friend of the counsellor’s spouse, although this was discovered only after intake. What is the best integrated ethical response?

The client says, “It is okay, I trust you. Please do not refer me because I have already started opening up.”
