The Malaysian Psychology Charter is a shared set of ethical values, created through collaboration with professionals across Malaysia’s mental health field. It includes psychologists, counsellors, educators, researchers, students, and community partners.

It is a living document, built from the ground up to reflect what matters most: integrity, responsibility, inclusion, and moral courage. It recognises the contributions of both established and emerging branches of psychology and related professions.

It is not a code of conduct or a formal regulatory document like those issued by MOH, MSCP, LKM, or other regulatory bodies. Instead, it is a values-based framework that speaks to our shared identity and ethical responsibilities as a growing professional community.

This Charter Aims To:

• Reflect Malaysian values — like humility, mutual respect, community, and responsibility
• Support ethical decision-making, especially in complex situations
• Encourage accountability, not silence, when harm or wrongdoing happens
• Unify the field by creating shared understanding across all branches of psychology — clinical, counselling, organisational, educational, forensic, and more

It is designed to reflect the cultural realities and diverse professional journeys in Malaysia.
