Practitioner Criteria, Expectations & Standards

Ethical Practice & Shared Responsibility

The National Spiritual Alliance holds its practitioners—healers, mediums, ministers, and teachers—to clear ethical standards grounded in Spiritualist principles.

All practitioners affiliated with TNSA are expected to:

  • Act with integrity, compassion, and respect

  • Practice within the scope of their certification and training

  • Uphold confidentiality and ethical boundaries

  • Represent Spiritualism responsibly in public and private settings

  • Continue learning and development as part of spiritual growth

Certification and ordination processes exist not as barriers, but as safeguards—to protect the public, support practitioners, and maintain the integrity of Spiritualist practice.

Detailed criteria and expectations for specific roles are outlined within the Education and Certification sections of this site.
