Practitioner Ethics Online Day Training

To be a practitioner means to know about conduct, ethics with working with peers, with different groups and keeping the ego in check. Ethics are fundamental in healing, multidimensional, and therapeutic work, especially in today’s world where individuals are navigating increasingly complex personal and collective challenges. As practitioners, we hold significant responsibility when working with clients who may be in vulnerable states—physically, emotionally, or spiritually. Ethics serve as a guiding framework to ensure that the care provided is respectful, non-exploitative, and rooted in the best interests of those we support. By maintaining clear boundaries, confidentiality, and integrity, practitioners foster trust and create a safe space for authentic healing to occur.

Dharma STARS

Sarah R

I have particularly learned and deeply appreciate ethics as an expression, or manifestation of natural law, of how things are, and so operate as reference points to reality, mediating what’s ‘unethical’ in a way that has potential to restore a personal and shared culture based on natural law, rather than, as a practitioner, adjust one’s behaviour within colonial culture to produce ‘success’ in economic terms, or operating within legislation. I can fully see now, I’m not conscious of the ethics codes I agreed to in my yoga teacher training or shamanic trainings and need to review these.

One of the beautiful things to come out of these trainings, is to recognise one’s dharma isn’t necessarily through a human-facing therapeutic job title and role, but nevertheless necessitate an ethics context in order that encounters with others, whether non-physical beings, indigenous peoples, or those considered ‘asleep’ or ‘unconscious’ are met in equanimity, in right relation, including a more symmetrical perspective to observe established cultural and multidimensional structures, so revealing prejudices and loyalties which, are themselves, colonial perspectives.

Katie Brockhurst

Katie Brockhurst is the author of the Social Media for a New Age books, and one of the first accredited digital wellbeing coaches (DipICF) in the world.

Katie is considered a pioneer in social media, as the first to win a Sony Radio Academy Award for podcasting in 2007, to setting up one of the first social media agencies in London at the same time.

Katie now works with teachers and practitioners in the spiritual and wellness space, from well known authors such as Rebecca Campbell, Lisa Lister and Diana Cooper to those just starting out on their journey in the online world. She also heads up the social media team for The Common at Glastonbury Festival.

Social media is very much her dharma, looking at the role it plays in all our lives, bringing a more magical and energetic approach which takes our relationship to it individually and as a collective, plus our wellbeing into account.

Victoria Sinclair Padma Khandro

Padma Khandro Victoria Sinclair is a Worldwide respected consciousness innovator having facilitated community trainings and events for over 20 years. She is a trauma specialist originally from Belfast, N.Ireland and works bridging realms and modalities in innovation and unique ways for each client or group’s needs. Padma Khandro is well-known as a culture bridge-maker in her integral work with a broad range of recognised indigenous elders and teachers in S. America, Europe, Asia and Australia.

With over 25 years practitioner training experience, Padma has realised the profound benefit of volunteering, long apprenticeship periods, ethics and the slow and steady Saturnian way through experiential and theoretical teachings across tribes, lineages and professions.

As someone who believes that we should practice self-responsibility rather than creating archaic authoritarian institutions Padma is a keen advocate for working with true governing principles of Natural Law and Time to help us expand as multidimensional practitioners and Dakini Weavers. This means finding a meaningful departure from superficiality and on the other hand, samsaric institutions to become responsible and dedicated pioneers for a Golden Age. Padma has also studied and lectured media to doctorate level and worked as a researcher for the BBC.

Maaike de Haan

Maaike de Haan is an art therapist and holistic practitioner with a foundation in energy medicine and teaching background in higher education, who has devoted her life to studying and working within the Healing Arts.

Maaike has a longstanding history and relationship with professional ethics and Saturnian application, from her early days as an art therapist-in-training through to being an educator teaching social work and art therapy students in the Netherlands, and later on during her long-term apprenticeships in tattooing and multidimensional practitionership, internationally. Maaike is currently working as a registered art therapist, taking part in regular supervision and peer-to-peer intervision and has taken part in several international art therapy ethics discussions.

Through her years of professional training and lived experience, constant application and ongoing curiosity and exploration on many levels, Maaike brings a rich and multi-layered approach to what is often seen as a ‘dry’ and sober subject. She’s on a mission to transform popular opinion and is passionate about weaving her manifold experiences together for the benefit of DharmaSTARS’ students and ethical practitionership as a whole.

Maaike weaves a fusion of modalities, anchoring her natural intuitive, empathic and multidimensional gifts in psychotherapeutic training and initiations into ancient wisdom and energy medicine lineages, resulting in a grounded holistic and trauma-informed approach.

Maaike is a Quantum Transfiguration practitioner (level 2), Reiki Master [Usui/ Tibetan tradition] and Sekhem Master/ Teacher initiate, who has studied specialisms in Energetic Hygiene & Clearings, Spaceholding, Earthkeeping and Death, Dying & Transitions, with her teacher Padma Khandro Victoria Sinclair – who she has been travelling and working with extensively in Mexico, Asia and Europe for the past 4+ years. She is currently developing Quantum Art Therapy as a modality, under the supervision of Victoria Padma Khandro – since 2022.

Currently in a triple strong Saturnian time astrologically, Maaike is personally and professionally both ready and rejoicing in the opportunity to be a part of our wider Saturnian Goat Brigade efforts within the platform!
