Thoughtful Owl

Policies & Disclaimers

Welcome to Thoughtful Owl. To ensure that our time together is safe, clear, and respectful, please read through the following policies and disclaimers before booking a reading, workshop, or class.

By booking a service with me, you are agreeing to the terms outlined below.

Scope of Services & Mental Health Disclaimer:

The services offered at Thoughtful Owl—including tarot readings, intuitive development workshops, and spiritual education—are intended for personal reflection, self-exploration, spiritual growth, and educational purposes only.

I do not provide psychotherapy, psychological counselling, clinical diagnosis, medical treatment, crisis intervention, or regulated mental health services. While I hold degrees in psychology, my services at Thoughtful Owl are not a substitute for care from a licensed physician, psychologist, psychotherapist, counsellor, social worker, psychiatrist, or other qualified mental health professional.

If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, thoughts of self-harm, or an emergency, please contact emergency services, go to your nearest emergency department, or reach out to a crisis line:
 

• Canada: Call 911 or call/text 988

• United States: Call 911 or call/text 988
   

You remain fully responsible for your own decisions, actions, and wellbeing following any reading, workshop, or class.

Tarot & Intuitive Services Guiding Principles:

 

I use tarot and intuitive practices as tools for introspection, insight, and recognizing patterns. I do not use tarot to predict a fixed future, read the minds of third parties who are not present, or tell you what choices you should make.

Additionally, tarot and intuitive readings are never a replacement for professional advice. Any insights or information discussed during our sessions should not be used as a substitute for professional legal, financial, or medical advice.

Privacy & Confidentiality:

Everything we discuss during a private reading or one-on-one session is strictly confidential. I will never share your personal information, the details of your reading, or your identity with anyone else without your explicit permission.

The only exception to this privacy policy is if I believe there is an imminent risk of severe harm to yourself or to someone else, or if I am otherwise required by law to report a specific situation.

Booking, Payment & Cancellations:

Because I run my practice from my home in Georgian Bluffs and carefully prepare for our time together, I kindly ask for respect regarding scheduling.
 

• Payment: Payment is required at the time of booking for groups and series or at the  beginning of  our session for tarot readings. 

• Cancellations & Rescheduling: If you need to cancel or reschedule, please provide at least 24 hours' notice. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice may be subject to a  50% cancellation fee. deposit.

• Lateness: If you are running late, please let me know. If you are more than [15] minutes late, we may need to reschedule your session to honor the time of other clients, and a cancellation fee may apply.
   

Studio Environment & Right of Refusal

Thoughtful Owl operates primarily out of my home in Georgian Bluffs. I strive to create a peaceful, safe, and welcoming environment for everyone who visits. Mutual respect is expected at all times. I reserve the right to refuse service, end a session early, or decline future bookings if a client is disrespectful or if I feel that my services are not the right fit for their needs.
