"The art and practice of psychotherapy is in its infancy

compared to the millennia-old history of shamanism."

About Randy

"I have watched Condors soar over the sacred mountains in Peru. Back at home in Bangladesh I have danced the dance of the Condor and seen heights I've never seen before. In Ireland I have placed my hands on the earth and felt Mother Earth cry because of the scars on the sacred site of Tara. In Germany, with my fellow shamans, I have danced in the fire and suffered no burns. In a hut in the Amazon I found myself paralyzed, fighting every demon I ever had all night long, only to survive and become a different and better person. Don't tell me the path of the shaman is not a true path."

Principles of Integrity

To help individuals practitioners be effective in service and healing in the world, and to help shift global consciousness, the Society of Shamanic Practitioners believes the following pledges represent the core principles of integrity in this pursuit:

  1. I pledge to work in sacred alliance with Spirit, and to be informed and guided by that Source, and not my own ego, in offering service to others.

  2. I pledge to recognize the wholeness inherent in every person or group or circumstance that comes for healing and to honor whatever form in which its pain is presented to me.

  3. I pledge to be mindful of speech, thought, and action and their impact on building relationships both in the present and through time into future and past.

  4. I pledge to be respectful of others, even in their differences.

  5. I pledge to work with compassion and non-judgment.

  6. I pledge to do no harm and to avoid any sexual misconduct in my work with clients.

  7. I pledge to maintain clients' privacy.

  8. I pledge to be honest with clients and other practitioners, and to be truthful in the manner in which I present myself in public relations and advertising.

  9. I pledge to offer fair and appropriate fees.

  10. In service to others, I pledge to keep my own life and personhood in balance to the best of my ability.
