Our ethical pledge for psychedelic therapy encompasses commitments to ensure the well-being, safety, and dignity of clients, practitioners, and the broader community. 

Client Safety and Well-being: We pledge to prioritise the physical and mental safety of my clients throughout their psychedelic-assisted therapy journey. This includes thorough screening for potential risks, providing appropriate preparation and integration support, and ensuring a secure environment during sessions.

Informed Consent: We pledge to fully inform clients about the nature of psychedelic substances, potential effects, risks, and benefits and will obtain informed consent from clients before proceeding with any therapy sessions.

Professional Competence: We pledge to maintain a high level of professional competence through ongoing education, training, and supervision and will only collaborate with service providers who are appropriately experienced, trained and qualified.  

Non-Discrimination: We pledge to provide equitable and inclusive care to all clients, regardless of their background, identity, or circumstances. Discrimination of any kind will not be tolerated.

Confidentiality: We pledge to maintain strict confidentiality regarding clients' personal information, experiences, and therapeutic sessions. Exceptions will be made only when mandated by law or when there's a threat to the client's safety or the safety of others.

Holistic Approach: We pledge to view clients as whole individuals and consider their physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions and will tailor our recommendations to their unique needs and circumstances.

Respect for Autonomy: We pledge to respect clients' autonomy in decision-making. I will collaborate with them to set intentions and guide their therapeutic journey, always honoring their preferences and choices.

Integrity and Transparency: We pledge to maintain honesty and transparency in all interactions with clients. This includes discussing potential risks, limitations, and uncertainties associated with psychedelic-assisted therapy.

Community Responsibility: We pledge to uphold ethical standards that contribute to the responsible development of the psychedelic-assisted therapy field. I will engage in open dialogue, research, and collaboration to ensure the well-being of clients and the reputation of the profession.

Continued Growth: We pledge to engage in ongoing self-reflection and personal growth, as well as contribute to the growth and ethical evolution of the broader psychedelic-assisted therapy community.
