Ethics

• We respect client boundaries
• Confidentiality - we agree with the client what can and can’t be shared
• We maintain professional boundaries within the coach-client relationship
• We assess and refer on if necessary - client health and safety is our highest priority
• We never go beyond the role of coach and intervene on a client’s behalf
• We are responsible for our own effectiveness, resilience and ability to help clients, including continued professional development
• We have suitable supervision
• We work within the law

These are consistent with the Code of Ethics of the International Coach Federation, of which we are members.
