10. During the professional relationship, guidance counsellors must not establish friendships likely to affect the quality of the professional services, or relations of an amorous or sexual nature with a client or a relative of the client. They must refrain from making improper remarks or gestures of a sexual nature to a client or a relative of the client.
For the purpose of determining the duration of the professional relationship, guidance counsellors must take into consideration, in particular, the nature of the consultation, the duration of the professional services provided, the client’s vulnerability and the likelihood of the guidance counsellors having to provide professional services to the client again.
