Psychology assignment 2270
I NEED IN AN HOUR AND PLEASE NO PLAGIARISM! I HAVE INCLUDED AN EXAMPLE.  Discussion 1: Ethics and Supervision Counselors who are in a supervisory role must constantly be aware of their ethical obligations. Ethically and legally, supervisors are responsible for the quality of services and actions of supervisees. Ethical supervision includes paying particular attention to the following areas: competence, evaluation and due process, dual relationships, confidentiality, and informed consent. While supervision may seem fairly straightforward, it is actually a complex and often multilayered process that should not be taken lightly. Counselors in training have an ethical responsibility to secure appropriate supervision from a qualified supervisor, align to this supervisor’s theoretical orientation as it applies to supervision, and to engage as an active partner in the supervisory process. Many states have specific guidelines for approved clinical supervisors. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are receiving the specific type, quality, and quantity of supervision that is required by your academic program and state of licensure. For this Discussion, reflect on the qualities of effective and ineffective supervisors. Think about a time when you worked with a supervisor. This does not need to be in a counseling position or even a paid position. Consider potential courses of action if you discovered your supervisor was engaged in unethical behavior. Post by Day 2 a description of the qualities of the most effective supervisor and the least effective supervisor and explain whether you consider these supervisors to be ethical or unethical. Then, explain how these supervisors affected your performance. Explain the significance of having an ethical supervisor. Finally, explain a potential course of action if you discovered that your supervisor was behaving unethically. Be sure to use the Learning Resources and the current literature to support your response.  Required Resources Note: To access this week’s required library resources, please click on the link to the Course Readings List, found in the Course Materials section of your Syllabus.
