Professional Development:<\/strong><br \/>Members are committed to their own professional development, research, and sharing findings related to the effectiveness of clinical and transpersonal approaches used in hypnotherapy.<p>\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>2. Standards of Conduct:<br \/><\/strong>Members maintain professional conduct that serves the best interests of the clients and the institutions where services are provided. They should align with the policies and principles of the organization and, if necessary, consider alternative employment options that prioritize their and the clients\u2019 highest interests.<\/p><p><strong>3. Ethical Behavior<\/strong>:<br \/>Members are expected to demonstrate ethical behavior towards professional colleagues, both members and non-members. If there are concerns about the ethical behavior of colleagues, appropriate action should be taken to rectify the problem, starting with internal channels and, if necessary, reporting to local authorities.<\/p><p><strong>4. Accurate Representation:<\/strong><br \/>Members should only claim the professional credentials, qualifications, and abilities they are entitled to. They should display degrees, certificates, and professional association affiliations in a visible location. Misrepresentation by others should be corrected, and members should refrain from diagnosing or prescribing medication unless authorized to do so.<\/p><p><strong>5. Fee Consideration:<\/strong><br \/>Members should consider the financial status of clients and locality when establishing fees for professional hypnotherapy services. Sliding scale alternatives and assistance in finding comparable services of acceptable cost should be offered in the best interest of the client.<\/p><p><strong>6. Accuracy of Information:<\/strong><br \/>When providing information to the public or professional colleagues, members have a responsibility to ensure that the content is accurate, unbiased, and consists of objective, factual data without revealing identifiable client information.<\/p><p><strong>7. Professional Qualifications:<\/strong><br \/>Members should accept only those positions and clients for which they are professionally qualified. They should establish a referral network of related holistic and professional specialties to offer clients appropriate care when needed.<\/p><p><strong>8. Client-Centered Approach:<\/strong><br \/>Members should provide therapy that focuses on facilitating the client\u2019s goals rather than the therapist\u2019s personal needs. The therapy should be brief and designed to meet the client\u2019s needs effectively.<\/p><p><strong>9. Professional Boundaries:<\/strong><br \/>Personal and sexual relationships with active clients are strictly prohibited during the duration of therapy to maintain professional objectivity and the ability to provide effective service.<\/p><p><strong>10. Confidentiality:<\/strong><br \/>Members must maintain client confidentiality regarding identity and all related information, unless written permission is obtained from the client. Exceptions include situations where the client poses imminent danger to themselves, children, or others.<\/p><p><strong>11. Client Screening:<\/strong><br \/>Members should carefully assess prospective clients and group participants to ensure their suitability for therapy or group dynamics throughout the duration of the therapy or group sessions.<\/p><p><strong>12. Client-Centered Approach:<\/strong><br \/>Members should adhere to a \u201cclient-centered\u201d approach, considering the client\u2019s goals, needs, and philosophical or religious preferences when delivering transpersonal hypnotherapy services. The therapist should acknowledge the client\u2019s total self (mind, body, and spirit) and utilize these components as resources in the therapeutic relationship.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_2\"><div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column_3  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\"><div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_4  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\"><div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">By adhering to the NATH Code of Ethics, members are committed to upholding professional standards, promoting the well-being of their clients, and advancing the field of transpersonal hypnotherapy.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-972fbbf elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"972fbbf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1062\" height=\"912\" src=\"https:\/\/nath.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/nath.-hands-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-328\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nath.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/nath.-hands-1.jpg 1062w, https:\/\/nath.world\/wp-content\/uploads\/nath.-hands-1-768x660.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1062px) 100vw, 1062px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cd5b34f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"cd5b34f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Code of Ethics Experience the Power of Membership with the National Association of Transpersonal Hypnotherapists!
