NO PLAGIARISM!!  APA FORMAT!! MORE THAN 4 REFERENCES!!! IF YOU ARE DOING THIS ASSIGNMENT PLEASE DO NOT BE LAZY BUT LOOK THINGS UP AND DO RESEARCH!!  THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT I HAVE ATTACHED TO THIS!  For many years, the ethical dilemma of playing both a therapeutic role and a forensic role has been debated in the literature. Some authorities argue that there is always a conflict of interest in such dual relationships, while other authorities argue that the two roles can be reconciled and impartiality can be maintained. Using the Argosy University online library resources and the Internet, locate at least ten articles that discuss the therapeutic role and the forensic role and take a stance on this particular debate. Make sure that your collection of articles is balanced with regard to the roles and the viewpoints.  Tasks:  Utilize the ethical decision-making process you learned about in M1 Assignment 3to create a 7- to 8-page argumentative paper supporting your stand. First, compare and contrast the roles, articulate the potential ethical conflicts, and discuss how those conflicts might be managed. Then, in a reasoned fashion, develop an argument for whether the two roles—therapeutic and forensic—should ethically coincide.  The course paper is essentially an argumentative essay. Refer to the following for guidelines about writing argumentative essays:  Refer to this guide for tips about writing argumentative essays.

Articulate the potential ethical conflicts and discuss how those conflicts might be managed. Using multiple sources, defend your thesis on how and why therapeutic and forensic roles should or should not be reconciled.
