There is a part in section A. 6. b that says counselors have the right to "extend" ones boundaries. I think with me, there has been a lot of "extending" going on.
What's your thought to hiding behind the Code?

A previous PsyDoc smashed the code of ethics with me. He told me that while having sex with a patient was "frowned upon," it would help get me out there in the dating world.
I found out later it was not only against medical ethics, it was a felony in that state. I didn't question everything until later.
Yes, they can twist the code of ethics to suit them, sometimes.
