- 9. Conclusion The most important thing to remember when entering into any helping field, is that professional boundaries are necessary. Ethical standards set by governing agencies aren't always enough to regulate one's actions and guide one into a safe, beneficial, and effective decision. In counseling, the client is the most important, and it is important to remember that the counselor must keep their well-being in mind at all times.
