Nasteha is a drug addicted client coming to speak to an addiction counsellor John as directed by the courts as part of her sentence for shoplifting and as part of her probation and conditional sentence. She is visibly still addicted to drugs and known around town for shady acts such as prostitution or doing sexual favors for people to get what she wants. For example, offering oral sex for drugs to her dealers and rumours say she has even done that for police to not get arrested. It is a big problem in the small town they both reside in, and this case demonstrates and example of how JOHN if corrupt or unethical could use his position of power over Nasteha for his own sick pleasure and how Nasteha could react. Nasteha comes in and explains she needs to get signature from John for her probation John realizes the precarious situation she is in, and that Nasteha is an easy target Nasteha isn’t really all that thrilled about being in the counsellor’s office as she isn’t all that interested in quitting drugs John understands this and takes the chance to violate the ethical code and make suggestions that if Nasteha were to “do him some favors” he would return the favor. If she doesn’t, John is going to insist she take drug tests (which isn’t even legal, but she probably doesn’t know it Nasteha refuses at first but is worried about breaching her probation and getting a criminal record John sees this and puts on the predatory act Nasteha returns for her next visit and this act happens again only a little quicker and less convincing This continues to happen until it becomes very regular Finally, Nasteha reports John as she should have off the bat, and he is FIRED for misconduct and charged himself on top of losing his job. • Using the ethical dilemma demonstrated in assignment , individually write a reflection describing 1. the ethic/ethical dilemma used in your group demonstration 2. the reason(s) behind why this ethic is included in the profession’s standards and the importance of upholding this ethic. 3.Describe how such an ethical violation might impact a client if not adhered to. 4.
