Abstract

Genetic counselling, and the ethical principles of non-directiveness and client autonomy that counsellors aspire to, are a cornerstone in the defence of genetic practice against accusations of eugenics. This paper examines the practical application of these principles using a conversation analytic approach, arguing that there is a need to pay greater attention to local interactional contexts in analysing counsellors' attainment or otherwise of ethical ideals.
