During the Why Maintaining Your Own Wellness is an Ethical Issue in Rehabilitation Counseling webinar, attendees are introduced to the accumulating evidence on how “counselor burnout” impacts a counselor’s quality of life, job performance, and potentially compromises the counselor’s ability to uphold their ethical responsibility of demonstrating professional competence (Code of Professional Ethics for Rehabilitation Counselors, Section D: Professional Responsibility, D.1.d; D.3.a; and Section A: The Counseling Relationship, A.4.a, A.4.b).
