There is no priest equivalent of that talent. Figuring out how many stacks you need is very vital as a single stack has a long duration. You want to conserve mana without taking too much damage.

-Similar to Improved Spirit/Improved Intellect, you have <b>Conservation</b> and <b>Holy Vengeance</b>, which I mentioned earlier. Conservation lowers the mana cost of your healing skills by up to 10%, similar to Assassin Focus but more limited. Holy Vengeance, again, increases damage by up to 15%. You must max either skill (Conservation or Holy Vengeance) to be able to unlock the final talent. Both Tier 3 talents aren't very good though so Holy Vengeance by default is the superior talent.

-Finally, you have <b>Excommunication</b> which reduces the chance for enemies to absorb (magic dodge) your attacks by up to 25%. So the equivalent of Titan's Precision talent but far more effective (10% vs 25%). You'll only need 2 points of this to access the tier 2 talents of the right tree. While missing attacks can be costly, the chances they will are slim enough that it doesn't matter as much. Max points in Improved Intellect and 2 points in this talent should be enough. Interestingly enough, it mimics Assassin with it's 2 point investment in Improved Sever.

 As for what tree you should invest in first, the left tree (healing) appears to be more useful over the right tree (offense). That's only for tier 1 though. Again you can reset your talents anytime, so investing in tier 1 healing talents early, and then switching to tier 1 and 2 "offense" later on is an acceptable choice.
