Professional counselors take great responsibility in maintaining confidentiality with their clients. Professional counselors are devoted to understanding and validating the existing and emerging concerns of all clients. This includes being committed to promoting the development of each client in a way that is reflective of his or her goals and values. Mental health counselors are listening with open ears that are non-judgmental and warm hearts willing to help.

Professional counselors are to be ethical in their practices, multi-culturally competent, and safeguard the integrity of the counselor-client relationship. Social justice will be promoted for all clients and goal-setting will be done to enhance human development throughout the life span. Each client is to be treated with dignity and respect, maintaining confidentiality between counselor and client. Mental health counselors will honor commitments, foster positive relationships, and treat every client in an equitable way.
