Abstract
The goal of psychotherapy is not only the dissolution of the symptoms, but also to attempt to bring about an improvement in adaptability and deepening the achievement of self-understanding. The nature of psychotherapy is based on the relationship between the therapist and patient. Such a goal and nature mean that some kinds of psychotherapy are beyond the medical model. In this paper ethical issues in psychotherapy are discussed as follows. 1) some complicated matters in informed-consent, 2) the hit or miss techniques of the poorly trained therapist, 3) the protection of privacy, 4) the sexual misconduct of therapists with patients, 5) special consideration for child-adolescent patients.
