Code of Ethics
Last Updated: November 3, 2026
Griellea serves adults navigating loss through grief coaching and education for individuals, and offers consulting for organizations. The following principles guide the way Griellea approaches its work.
1. Dignity and Respect
Griellea treats prospective clients, clients, and professionals with dignity, courtesy, and respect. Grief, in all its forms, is approached with care, without judgment, comparison, or pressure.
2. Scope of Services
Griellea’s services are non-clinical, reflective, and conversational in nature and are designed to serve adults navigating loss through grief coaching and education. Clients who need clinical support should seek it from a licensed clinician.
3. Honesty and Clarity
Griellea describes its services, credentials, fees, limitations, and practical policies accurately and clearly, so that everyone Griellea works with understands what is being offered. Grief is deeply individual, and each person’s path through it is unique. Grief coaching and education honors that uniqueness rather than working toward predetermined outcomes.
4. Client Autonomy
Griellea respects each client’s personal values, timing, judgment, and decision-making. Education and supportive coaching are offered in support of each client’s own wisdom and sense of direction.
5. Professional Responsibility
Griellea is committed to the quality and integrity of its work as a grief coaching and education practice. This means operating within established scope, certifications, and training, continuing to grow in knowledge and skill, and bringing full attention to every person Griellea serves.
6. Privacy and Discretion
Griellea values the privacy of those it serves. Personal information is held with care, discretion, and genuine respect for the trust it represents.
7. Professional Boundaries
The relationship between Griellea and those it serves is professional in nature. Griellea is committed to maintaining that clarity in all interactions and arrangements.
8. Non-Discrimination
Griellea does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, national origin, language, religion or spiritual belief, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, disability, family structure or marital status, military or veteran status, or socioeconomic status.
