They are three separate works
1. To be prepared to explore your theoretical approach, it is important to first determine how you and the profession define counseling and therapy. Provide a holistic definition of counseling that aligns with your beliefs about the therapeutic process. In addition to your readings, you may wish to consult the Web sites of national or state counseling associations or state laws that define counseling and therapy. Include comments on what creates change within an individual as a result of counseling or therapy, and identify the most important aspects of the counselor and the counseling process. Utilize scholarly resources to support your views and beliefs.
2. Discuss the benefits of practicing from a well-defined theoretical approach and the pitfalls of not doing so. Discuss what influences the development of a theoretical approach and the process of how it will develop for a beginning counselor.
3 The 2014 ACA Code of Ethics addresses the ethical responsibilities of counselors with respect to providing counseling in a culturally sensitive manner, and to advocating for the removal of barriers that hamper the growth and development of clients. As you read, ACA also endorses professional standards related to cultural competence and social justice advocacy. Based on your visit to the website of the professional association for your specialization area, what did you find with respect to ethical codes and standards of practice (For example, does the NCDA have its own Code of Ethics? Does the AAMFT have professional standards related to Advocacy?) What other resources or information did you notice on the site? Is there a peer-reviewed journal affiliated with your professional association.
