Ultra Depth® Process
Practitioner and Facilitator Code of Ethics

In the public interest and for guiding the professional conduct of the Ultra Depth® Process practitioner and facilitator, Ultra Depth® International has developed this Practitioner and Facilitator Code of Ethics to assure the continuing quality of the Ultra Depth® Process and the professionalism of practitioners and facilitators. Since some practitioners and facilitators are also accountable to professional licensing boards, those practitioners and facilitators are expected to abide by the ethical codes, and professional policies of those boards. Practitioners and facilitators will also abide by the laws and statues of their local, regional, and national geographic locales.
