I want to share the boundaries of my practice and commit to holding these boundaries with all my clients. I encourage my clients to share their own boundaries with me and I commit to incorporating your boundaries into our sessions as well.
- This is a clothes-on practice. This is not sex work, and we will not engage in sexual acts.
- I will ask for consent around the methods of coaching I use, and around any touch that I initiate. I will ask that my clients ask for consent before initiating any touch with me.
- I will respect your chosen or given name, gender identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, and pronouns. I will ask for your pronouns, and preferred name. I will request that my clients correct me if I use incorrect pronouns or name. I ask that my clients respect my shared identity markers too ❤️
- I will not engage in a romantic or sexual relationship with my clients. As much as I try to ensure there are no coach/client power dynamics in my coaching, there’s always some level of power difference in such practice which makes it unethical to also engage in a sexual or romantic relationship with my clients.
- If I feel unable to provide care or if I feel like my client will be better served by someone else, I will communicate that with my clients and help them find another practitioner.
- Anything shared within session will stay private, and I will not share it with anyone else except with prior consent from my client. Any sharing (with consent) will only happen in cases where it’s helpful to talk to other people as part of the care I provide, e.g. talking to my client’s partner as part of providing care.
- I will share all costs of session ahead of a session, and we will sign any agreements related to our session beforehand. I will request that my clients make a payment before the session begins – we can also make payments at the start of a session.
