Scenario (MindTap: Ethics, Corey, 2021): “The client (LeAnne) thinks prayer should be her answer to her personal problems. She doesn’t believe she is hearing the Lord clearly. Her counselor (Suzanne) has some trouble in understanding what her client’s religion means to her or how to work within LeAnne’s religious framework in the counseling relationship. Instead, Suzanne comments that she feels she is in competition with God and the client’s religion. Suzanne wants her client to put more faith in the counseling process as an answer to her problems rather than relying on her religion.”
