Boundaries:

During work:

• Establish a clear contract with the client before starting Work.
• Permission is obtained to work with the client or people who may not be present.

Professional responsibility:

• Formal work does not replace psychological or medical treatment and this must be made clear to the client.
• Preserving the professional name of the formal work method and avoiding tarnishing the reputation of the work because this negatively affects all workers in the sector and the negative impact extends in a way that sometimes wrongs workers legally and ethically and it is our collective responsibility to maintain the integrity of the professional name and the developed method that Dr. Nariman Asad created to be consistent with the data of our society and any breach of this contract and responsibility exposes you to accountability and if you wish to work in a different way or adopt the classical method, you must change the name so as not to harm the name of the formal work method.
• The practitioner is responsible for him/herself, his colleagues and others for his professional behavior and at work.
• It is important to keep in mind the question “for whom are you doing this?”.
• The facilitator will not deal with problems in which they do not feel competent with family or close friends or people who are not present themselves without their consent.
• Honesty about the limits of the formal work method and the individual’s own limits – being clear about what you can and cannot do and not making false claims, formal work is not the solution to all problems.
• Taking responsibility to inform colleagues about questionable ethical practices as a supportive community that embraces the ethics of formal work, it is your duty to inform.   Nariman or her team about unethical practices or practices that violate the code of conduct of the profession without hesitation, procrastination or delay so that we can review and guide the person because any practice affects everyone and not just the person.
