Practitioners

Trained & Licensed through CSL


Professional Practitioners, trained and licensed through the Centers for Spiritual Living, provide individual spiritual guidance to “change your thinking, change your life.” Dedicated to sacred service, they are bound by a high code of ethics and confidentiality. Their work is grounded in the principles of Science of Mind. They use Spiritual Mind Treatment/ Affirmative Prayer and spiritual coaching to enhance the lives of their clients.



To become licensed, an individual must complete a series of prerequisite courses before applying for the Professional Practitioner Training. The two-year program includes the art, science and skill of Spiritual Mind Treatment/ Affirmative Prayer, personal development and training in professional coaching. For more information, ask one of our Professional Practitioners.
