You learn that she has engaged another counselor who treats alcohol use and co-occurring disorders. This morning you received notice from your licensing board that Janet filed a complaint against you alleging that you attempted to treat Janet’s addiction to alcohol and that you did not have the expertise necessary to do so. You are a licensed professional counselor, but you have not obtained training in addictions. Based on this information, answer the following questions:

  • How would you respond to the licensing board complaint?
