Ethics & Standards

My Commitment to You

I believe that mediumship should feel safe, empowering and respectful. Whether you book a private reading, join a course, or attend an event, my intention is always to offer a grounded, compassionate experience that supports you — without fear, pressure, or unrealistic promises.

This page explains the ethical standards I follow, so you know exactly what you can expect from me.

1. No Guarantees

Mediumship is a deeply personal experience, and no ethical medium can promise specific outcomes.
That means I never guarantee:

  • that a particular loved one will come through

  • that I will receive specific information

  • that a certain message will appear

  • that your future will unfold in a particular way

I will always do my best to provide an evidential, meaningful experience — but I’m honest about what mediumship can and cannot offer.

2. Your Free Will Matters

Any spiritual insight shared in a reading is offered as guidance, not instruction.
You are always in charge of your own decisions.

Readings are here to support your reflection and personal growth — not to replace your own judgement, instincts, or responsibility.

3. Not a Substitute for Professional Advice

Mediumship is not therapy, medicine, or legal advice.

I do not diagnose conditions, prescribe treatments, or tell you to stop professional care. If you are dealing with a serious health, mental health, or legal matter, I will always encourage you to speak with an appropriately qualified professional.

If you are feeling vulnerable, overwhelmed, or in crisis, the most loving step is to reach out for professional support. (If you’d like, I can help you find appropriate resources.)

4. Respect, Consent & Boundaries

A reading should never feel intrusive or uncomfortable.

I work with respect and sensitivity, and you always have the right to:

  • pause or stop the session

  • decline a topic

  • ask for clarification

  • take a break

  • say “no” to anything that doesn’t feel right

I will never pressure you to share personal information. You are welcome to keep as much privacy as you wish.

5. No Fear, No Manipulation

I do not support fear-based spiritual services.

You will never hear me claim that:

  • you are cursed

  • you have negative entities attached

  • you need “urgent” cleansing

  • you must pay more to be “protected”

  • your life will be harmed if you don’t take action

This type of messaging is unethical, and it’s not part of my work.

6. Confidentiality

Everything you share in a private session is treated with respect and discretion.

I will never share identifying personal details about clients publicly without explicit consent.
(If you choose to leave a review or send feedback, you are of course welcome to share whatever you feel comfortable with.)

7. Vulnerability & Grief

If you are coming to me in grief or at a sensitive time, please know I will always approach your reading with care.

Mediumship can be comforting, but it can also bring emotions to the surface. I will never exploit vulnerability, and I encourage you to take your time and be gentle with yourself afterwards.

If you feel you need additional support, grief counselling or therapy can be a powerful companion to spiritual connection.

8. Spiritual Development & Responsibility

When teaching or mentoring, I emphasise grounded development:

  • ethics

  • emotional safety

  • discernment

  • healthy boundaries

  • responsibility and integrity

I don’t encourage spiritual dependency. My aim is always to help people trust themselves, and develop in a way that feels safe and empowering.

9. Pricing & Transparency

I believe in clear, fair and transparent pricing.
All booking terms, pricing and session lengths are outlined before you commit.

If you have any questions, please contact me before booking and I’ll always be happy to help.

10. If Something Doesn’t Feel Right

Mediumship is a relationship of trust. If at any point something doesn’t feel aligned for you, you are welcome to say so. I won’t take it personally.

I would always rather you feel safe and supported than try to “push through” an experience that doesn’t feel right.

A Final Note

If you’re drawn to mediumship, I truly believe it should be approached with curiosity, openness and grounded realism.

My commitment is to offer you a respectful, ethical experience that supports your healing, insight, and connection — without pressure, fear, or false promises.

Thank you for being here.

Before You Book

Please only book if you feel emotionally ready for a reading, and if you understand that mediumship is not guaranteed. If you are in a particularly fragile place, it may be best to seek professional mental health support first — and return to a reading when you feel more stable and supported.
