The ethics codes of the professional associations representing psychotherapists and counselors (NASW, ACA, etc.) encourage the ongoing use of professional consultation. The aim is to help enhance professional skills, knowledge, and attitudes for competency in quality care. Consultation also aids professional growth and development and improves clinical outcomes.
