APPLIED COUNSELING2Applied CounselingQ1Mia had some many professional and personal issues that she encountered when she was doing therapeutic counseling like in the case of Chleo who had a liberal sexual attitude. Mia didn’t approve of his lifestyle but went ahead to initiate the counseling session. Mia would have referred the client to another therapist who would have been comfortable doing the session instead of doing it when she feels that it is interfering with her personal beliefs and values(Carlson, Sperry & Lewis, 2013). This situation made the forming of relationship with the client to be difficult. The client felt judge and couldn’t open up. In this situation Mia didn’t consider the codes of ethic that guides counselors. The client felt abandoned and wanted the session to be terminated. In the case of Berry Mia had unresolved personal issues that affected her relationshipwith the client (Sommers-Flanagan & Sommers-Flanagan, 2018).

Mia didn’t have something to support the reason for terminating the session on document form and this was risky because this can easily cost her job.Another thing that she should in cooperate is good quality of care to her clients hence enhancing service delivery. In order for Mia to improve her service delivery she should consider joining counseling session so that she can be taken through counseling (Evans, 2013).

She is also supposed to understand the codes of ethic and legal issues.Q4The case that needs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the case of Berry the father of two who is alcoholic.
