HEALERS SHOULD BE LOOKING AT WHAT IS BEST FOR THEIR CLIENT AND NOT WHAT IS BEST FOR THEIR PERSONAL GAIN.

I was contacted by a potential client requesting urgent healing. This person wanted to find out how soon I could give them an appointment and frankly, sounded desperate. I suggested a few days and times and the client chose one and we settled.

The following day I received a Whatsapp message from this client stating that they are currently seeing another healer and that the healer said that having treatment by another healer would interfere with the healing process currently provided. Ummm….BIG RED FLAG!!! “That’s interesting”, I thought. The client opted to cancel the appointment.

Receiving healing from 2 or 10 different healers with different healing modalities will not interfere with each others healing. In fact, it is in the best interest of the client and it may speed up the healing necessary.

What concerned me the most is the ethics of this healer. This particular healer hooked onto the client’s fear and anxiety and maximised it to their benefit. It is unprofessional behaviour, out of integrity and not in the best interest of the client.

As a Reiki Master practitioner and psychotherapist, it is sometimes necessary to refer a client to a medical professional, another psychotherapist, counselor or another healer when it is in the best interest of my client. Healers, medical and mental health professionals are required to refer their client to another professional when it is in the best interest of their client and not for personal gain.
