The Ethics of Caring: Honoring the Web of Life in Our Professional Healing Relationships By Kylea Taylor

Ethical issues pertain to longings, feelings, and motivations which resonate at our very core. Our drives toward (and away from) money, sexuality, power, love, truth, inspiration, and oneness are the most powerful forces in our lives. How can we expect that these drives will not intrude in one way or another into our relationships with clients?

Author Kylea Taylor-The Ethics of Caring by Kylea Taylor is written for psychotherapists, bodyworkers, medical practitioners, clergy and spiritual teachers, hypnotherapists, acupuncturists, chiropractors, medical support personnel, and teachers who want to become more conscious in their relationships with clients. Kylea Taylor sees ethics as the practice of moving toward wholeness as human beings, rather than feeling constricted by the imposition of external rules. The Ethics of Caring provides a new model with some tools for navigating the deep and often confusing relationship between client and caregiver and for preventing the harmful consequences of ethical misconduct.
