Resolving Issues: Integrating an Ethical Decision Making Model:
a. Provide a well-written and detailed summary about a situation where you felt discriminated against. The situation can relate to you as a student
or professional. It can happen within a counseling session with a client, supervisory relationship with a supervisor or instructor, peer or colleague,
or a boss at a job. This situation can be hypothetical or one that actually occurred. If the latter, please do not use any identifiable information of
persons involved. In your summary, clearly identify what made you feel discriminated against and how you handled or resolved it.
b. Please also identify the ethical dilemma(s) or issues that the situation posed for you or the other person. Use the American Counseling Association
(ACA) Ethics Code as your reference. Identify an ethical decision making model that you learned in the Ethics course to further identify the ethical
issue(s) and resolve them in a step-wise manner. It is recommended that you clearly identify and thoroughly address each step of the ethical
decision making model to think through and resolve all applicable considerations.
The paper should be an integrative, critical review of the above areas and must be written in APA format, including references, citations, and relevant ethical
codes.
