Statement of Ethics:

This is S. Bell Rose, and the following is a description of the ethics that I follow in my work.

I do not discriminate against any race, ethnicity, color, sex, disability, political affiliation, sexual preference, marital status, parental status, social class, gender identity or religious belief.

I actively strive to do no harm at any time. I am compassionate and validating. I don’t heal or cure directly. I teach clients how to heal themselves.

I believe that no one is permanently damaged or incapable of being competent regardless of any past trauma or toxic situation they have survived. Toxic beliefs from abuser’s negative teaching can be unlearned. I recognize that it is natural for anyone who is abused or in a traumatic situation to feel disconnected from themselves and others. My clients can learn how to reconnect with themselves as a part of healthy healing from past abuse. Sessions focus on strengths, positive coping strategies, healthy beliefs. My clients set the agenda for our sessions and they determine how long we work together.

I believe my clients are able to recover from negative and painful patterns learned to survive past traumas and toxic situations and learn new healthier patterns.

Recovery goals are individual. Everyone heals at their own unique pace. We can work together to help create a path to recovery and thriving with kindness and patience.

I do not diagnose medical ailments or suggest supplements or medication. I only diagnose mental health issues when conducting a mental health assessment prior to starting Psychotherapy. No one else is diagnosed or labeled with a mental illness.

I do not make decisions for my clients. I may suggest healthy ideas and encourage personal growth, but I do not demand that my suggestions be followed. My clients are solely responsible for their own mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, and financial well-being. Any decision a client makes inspired by the content of sessions or advice offered is solely the responsibility of the client.

I have clairvoyant, clairaudient and clairsentient spiritual skills and use them to help me be more effective in my Spiritual Counseling.

Sessions with me are for self-improvement, increased understanding of yourself and your circumstances, problem solving and advice. Sessions do not involve “fortune telling” such as what numbers to use in a lottery, what stock to buy or sell, financial or real-estate advice.

I believe that the future is not predetermined and is rather fluid, so that a different outcome is highly likely with different decisions and a shift in energy of anyone involved.

I do not teach about “manifesting” but instead I focus on helping you learn to thrive in your life through choices you make and an improved relationship with yourself and others.

I do not remove “curses” or “hauntings.” I can help a client who believes that they have a curse. I understand how that feels and can discuss how to do some healing about that belief and those feelings. But I am not convinced that “curse removal” services are legitimate.

Spiritual Counseling sessions are not available to someone who is actively engaging in behavior that puts their physical life at risk such as substance abuse and self-harming behavior. If you are having suicidal intentions, in the USA, call 988 or the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at this link: https://988lifeline.org Click this link for International crisis hotlines.

Spiritual Life Coaching sessions are not appropriate for those who have an active mental illness that is currently impairing functioning. These sessions are not a substitution for the treatment of a mental illness.

Mental illness would mean a substantial disorder of thought or mood that significantly impairs judgment, behavior, capacity to recognize reality, or ability to cope with the ordinary demands of life.

I only do Spiritual Counseling with adults. I do psychic readings with those who are age 14 and older if their guardians or parents approve.

I am a mandated reporter within the USA for suspected abuse of children and vulnerable adults to Protective Services. I am also required to report information related to a murder to legal authorities. If an American client reports intentions to serious harm or kill themselves, I will alert local legal authorities to prevent death.

I do not offer crisis sessions. If a Client needs crisis support, they are encouraged to utilize local resources.

Here is a link to some hotlines through out the world.

I teach clients to self-sooth if needed, and to establish healthy boundaries and balance in their life. I hold these values for myself as well.
