Code of Ethics
I, John H. Koch, with this certify that as a professional spiritual practitioner, I proudly honor the code of ethical principles as set forth and outlined below on behalf of all clients, personnel, and professionals I work and operate with:
Eighteen and Older: I offer my services to spiritual seekers above the legal age of eighteen.
Keep Confidential: A client’s trust is highly valued and everything shared within the client-practitioner sphere is kept strictly confidential. It is ethical to disclose sensitive information only when the client consents.
Respect Rights: I respect the rights and preferences of my clients and spiritual colleagues. I also agree to recognize a person’s right to refuse or accept help on their terms and will never force a reading, a message or my opinions, or my lifestyle on those who choose to withhold.
Do No Harm: I understand that the ability to communicate with Spirit is to be used only in serving the highest good of all involved. I offer my services solely for healing, helping and supporting others and I strive always to use my resources appropriately.
Withhold Judgement: I owe my clients and my colleagues’ complete loyalty, and I agree only to provide spiritual services when I can do so as an unbiased and clear vessel. Personal profit, discrimination, or my own emotions will not influence the services I offer. The information I present is from Spirit which I interpret to the best of my ability.
Colleagues: A professional never undermines other colleagues. I require the assistance of my colleagues and the spiritual community, and I apply the same level of ethics towards my colleagues as I do my clients.
Volunteer Hours: I strive to achieve fifty hours annually of volunteer work providing for those in need who cannot afford my services.
Musing and Teachings: I certify that all of my shared works are originals, birthed from original ideas, from innovative life experiences and my own professional experience and expertise. When they are not, topics are appropriately credited and cited.
Providing Services: I only offer those services that I believe will indeed help the client or colleague at their highest level. When the examination of an issue is beyond my capacity, I will refer to a network of trusted professionals.
