To ensure we adhere to best practices and ethical guidelines in the mental health field, we are careful to avoid dual relationships. A dual relationship occurs when a mental health provider has a second, significantly different relationship with their client in addition to the traditional client-therapist relationship, including, for example, a management relationship.

If someone with a Headspace account is hired for a position, please be aware that their account will be deactivated and they will not be able to use Headspace services for the duration of their employment.

If Headspace is unable to find a role that does not resolve an ethical issue relating to a dual relationship, Headspace may need to take measures to ensure ethical obligations are met, including a delayed start date or potential leave of absence. Such measures will be taken to protect both the former member and any relevant individuals on their care team from impairment, risk of exploitation or harm.
