Qusetion: Cybercounseling
The internet has become a powerful tool in the delivery of career counseling and information services. Among the developments in computer-based counseling is cybercounseling. As a result of the proliferation of cybercounseling, ethical guidelines have been created from which career centers and Counselors can gain guidance. Three key organizations, National Career Development Association (NCDA), American Counseling Association (ACA), and National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC), have each developed their own set of ethical guidelines. Review the ethical guidelines in the Harris-Bowlsbey (2012) text. Prior to addressing the questions of this discussion, conduct brief research on cybercounseling.
Based on the information you found and considering the ethical guidelines from the textbook, address the following questions:
