Purpose
In the assignment, the student’s task is to critically analyze the ethical case and provide answers to presented questions by integrating references to ethical principles, standards of practice, relevant practice guidelines and legislation:
Students who apply for registration with CCPA or other colleges (i.e. CRPO, BCACC) as counsellors, therapists and mental health service providers are required to refer to CCPA Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics. Members of these colleges (in addition to the CCPA Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics) may also analyze the case in terms of the principles of CRPO Code of Ethics or BCACC Code of Ethical Conduct and Standards of Clinical Practice.
Students who apply for registration with the College of Alberta Psychologists as psychologists are required to refer to CAP Standards of Practice and the CPA Code of Ethics.
Instructions
Consider the following case for analysis:
Giselle recently established a private practice in a culturally diverse neighbourhood. One of her first clients was Donna, who came to Giselle feeling depressed. Donna communicated that she feels that her life doesn’t make much sense and that she feels trapped by the needs of her husband and young children. When Giselle asked about any recent events that may contribute to her depression, Donna said that she had discussed with her husband her desire to return to school and pursue a new career. Donna’s husband had threatened to divorce her if she followed through with her plans. She had then consulted with her pastor, who advised her of her responsibilities to her family. Giselle is aware of her own cultural biases, which include a strong attachment to family and the role of a man as the head of the family. Although she feels sympathy for Donna’s situation, Gisele persuades Donna to put her own aspirations aside until her children grow up. Donna agrees to this because she feels guilty about meeting her own needs and because she is afraid of being left alone. Giselle then works with Donna to find other ways to make sense of her life that wouldn’t dramatically impact her family.
Answer the following questions:
List the potential gender and cultural issues in this case, and how might you have addressed each of them?
Giselle did not explore the lack of meaning in Donna’s life until after she persuaded her to give up her aspirations. What ethical issue does this raise?
If Donna had shared Giselle’s family values, would this approach have been appropriate? Explain.
