Z70: Counselling related to sexual attitude, behaviour and orientation
Z70.2: Counselling related to sexual behaviour and orientation of third party
Counselling related to sexual behaviour and orientation of third party is a supportive service aimed at providing accurate, confidential, and non-judgmental guidance to an individual who is seeking information or help concerning the sexual behavior or orientation of someone else. Typically, the person seeking counselling may be a close friend, relative, or partner of the third party. The counselling process may involve helping the individual understand the core principles of sexuality, the diversity and fluidity in sexual orientations, and equipping them with positive strategies to communicate and support the third party effectively. This counselling process might be helpful in easing potential misunderstandings, mitigating stress, and fostering healthier relationships. It does not necessarily indicate a medical condition in either the person seeking counselling or the third party being discussed.
