Carrie Wiita and Ben Caldwell talk through a sample question to start our discussion of test-taking skills, and Carrie comes one step closer to an important life goal.
This question comes from an older version of the BBS California LMFT Law & Ethics Exam handbook. It would equally apply to the LPCC and LCSW Law & Ethics exams.

Suppress personal feelings of attraction and continue providing therapy

Explain the ethical issue to the client and provide a referral to an alternate therapist
Seek consultation to manage the attraction and monitor therapeutic boundaries
