1. A trainee counsellor is seeing a client who reports sudden mood elevation, sleeping only two hours, spending large amounts of money and feeling “specially chosen.” What should the counsellor prioritise?

The client enjoys the counselling relationship and says, “Please don’t make this medical. I trust only you.” The trainee wants to protect the alliance while staying within scope.

2. A client reveals domestic violence, then says, “If you refer me anywhere, my family will know I complained.” What is the best intervention choice?

There is no immediate life-threatening injury in the session, but the client describes escalating control, financial restriction and fear of retaliation.

3. A supervisee feels irritated with a client who repeatedly misses appointments and says, “Maybe this client is not serious.” What is the most appropriate use of supervision?

The client has trauma history and often apologises after missed sessions. The supervisee is considering discharge without discussion.

4. During online counselling, a client reports hearing a voice commanding self-harm but quickly adds, “I am safe; don’t make it a big issue.” What is the best counselling judgement?

The counsellor is not trained in psychosis treatment and does not know the client’s exact current location.

5. A counsellor has experience in career counselling, but a client begins describing severe eating restriction, purging and dizziness. Which response best protects scope and alliance?

The client says, “Please keep helping me; I came for career confusion but food has become a problem too.”

6. A psychiatrist requests a counsellor’s notes for a shared client. The client has verbally agreed to collaborative care but has not clarified what can be shared. What is the best next step?

The counsellor wants to support integrated care without breaching privacy or weakening trust.
