Seminary Ordination Programs
Tzaddi is a metaphysical spiritual organization that welcomes and supports people in experiencing the infinite, loving, co-creative presence of the Divine.
Our seminary programs offer training and certification as a Spiritual Director and ordination as metaphysical clergy. There are three program levels, each building on the one that comes before:
• Spiritual Healer Counselor (500 hour program)
• Minister (400 hour program) for a total of 900 program hours to become a Minister
• Doctor of Divinity (350 hour program) for a total of 1250 program hours to become a D.D.*
Our seminary programs are designed to help you move step by step through the inner transformation from a spiritual seeker to a helping professional. We incorporate classic works from the fields of psychology, supervision, mediation, and leadership training. You begin at the entry level (Healer Counselor candidate) and work through each level until you attain the level that meets your spiritual purpose and educational goals. You also have the option of completing the programs without taking ordination, receiving only the title of Spiritual Director without any of the clergy titles above. Each seminary program level (Healer Counselor, Minister, Doctor of Divinity) contains eight parts, with content appropriate for that level, building on the levels that come before it:
- Metaphysical, Psychic, & Spiritual Topical Studies (advanced placement credit available)
- Vocational Studies
- Relational and Organizational Awareness Studies
- Professional Development Studies
- Practicum
- Tutorials
- Skills Demonstrations
- Assessments

*Nomenclature of theology certificates and degrees can be confusing. Please note that our ordination programs are vocational, not academic, programs. There is no thesis required for our programs, nor study of ancient Greek, Hebrew, etc. as is found in traditional seminaries. Our metaphysical worship is based in the language of light, rather than the language of scripture, and so we encourage and support the development of psychic and spiritual gifts that allow you to perceive spiritual light more
directly.
