3) identify examples of ethical situations versus dilemmas in current therapy practice;

4) review and apply select components of the RIPS Model of ethical contemplation;

5) apply a framework for ethical decision making that includes fundamental ethical principles (action constraints), practical constraints, professional duties/responsibilities, legal duties; and
