But she did remover herself from it - by finding someone who would be willing to help the client or whoever. And she did remove herself from the situation by not counseling the person. But at the same time, I agree that why be a counselor if you only want to help certain people.

So, if you were a counselor who had been abused as a child and had a client who was a convicted pedophile would you have any "issues" counseling them? Would you counsel them or refer them to someone else?
