Client Agreement
I understand that Mary Hayes Grieco is a spiritual guide and healer, and a forgiveness coach who uses the model and methods of Unconditional Forgiveness. I understand that Mary’s philosophical framework has evolved out of her own spiritual experiences, and from a synthesis of traditional and non-traditional sources. I understand that she is not a psychologist or psychotherapist. I know that my sessions with Mary are confidential. I understand that at times, forgiveness work can be emotionally intense, and I believe that I can handle my emotions appropriately. I will seek further help and advice from Mary or another mental health professional immediately if I feel overwhelmed by my emotions or in danger of causing harm to myself in any way. I understand that while I am working with Mary, if she perceives that I have challenges that go beyond the scope of her experience she will refer me to appropriate resources, and that she will help me co-ordinate the transfer with my other caregivers.
I consider myself capable of using Mary’s guidance in a mature way, that is, “I will take what’s good for me, and leave the rest.
I acknowledge that I am responsible for my own growth, my own decisions, my actions and their consequences.
