Session Two: Designed to help mental health clinicians increase their self-awareness, identify their own values and beliefs, and learn how those values and beliefs influence the counseling process. Moreover, clinicians, through their raised self-awareness, will learn how their values and beliefs may interfere with ethical practice and the negative outcomes they can have on the therapeutic process. Clinicians will also review their clients’ rights and how these rights have changed in light of technological advances, and how the rights of minority client populations differ between groups.
