A 19-year-old client seeks treatment for relationship issues. The client shares that he is attracted to both women and men and he doesn't know how to explain it to his parents. Three months into treatment the client is unexpectedly laid off from his job and leaves a message that he can't afford therapy. He declines to attend termination sessions because of concerns about spending money while unemployed. How should the therapist clinically manage the ethical issues in this case?
1) Call the client and explain why the client needs to meet for a final session to gain a sense of closure and provide referral to LGBT services.
2) Offer a termination session at a reduced fee to enable the client to process the termination and provide referrals to low fee services.
3) Encourage the client to continue therapy in order to determine his sexual identity.
4) Send a letter to the client affirming that he terminated against professional advice and is welcome to return.
