About Tom Wilkinson, Ed.D
Over 30 years ago I began following the breadcrumbs of my spirt guides and helpers and ever since then I have been engaged in various forms of non-traditional and energetic healing. My holistic approach to life stems from my belief in the inter-connectedness of all things.
The indigenous healing practices of Andean medicine women and men form the primary
lineage of my shamanic education, although I have incorporated aspects of North American shamanism and Celtic Shamanism into my calling.
After life as an artist, and corporate/college/university educator, I was re-awakened to the understanding that I had
been called to do this work again.
I am a graduate of the Gateway School of Shamanism’s two year program where I also completed advanced graduate programs in dream manifestation. In early 2013, I received the Munay-Ki nine empowerment rites based on the initiatory practices of the Q’ero shamans of Peru, and I studied in Peru with Don Theo Parades, recognized anthropologist and Shaman. While there I participated in shamanic ceremonies in numerous sites including the Temple of Wiracocha, Pisac, Lake Titicaca, Colca Canyon, and Machu Picchu.
I have also participated in shamanic training with several other recognized shamans and shamanic practitioners increasing my knowledge, experience and wisdom of Andean, North American and Celtic
Shamanism. I was engaged in Hank Wesselman’s last teachings as part of his Shamanic Visionary Circle year long program. In May of 2023 I collaborated with a shaman in Ecuador conducting healings and ceremonies at Pinchincha, Mejia and las Siete Cascades.
Most importantly, my life experiences have provided a strong base for my shamanic education and experiences as I followed the calling of my shamanic practice.
I served as the “Visiting Shaman” for Reiki Journey - Alternative and Holistic Health in Blacksburg, Virginia and assisted teaching second year students in the Gateway School of Shamanism outside Charlottesville, Virginia. I teach various courses in shamanism for Nibana Salt and Wellness in Annapolis, Maryland, including “Shamanic Healing Wisdom and Practices”, part of the Certified Practitioner for Holistic Health program. I am a member of the Society for Shamanic Practice.
I offer individual shamanic energy healing sessions and individual mentoring in shamanic practices in person and around the world virtually, as well as, land and home healing, and education in shamanic practices.

What is Shamanic Energy Medicine?
Shamanic energy medicine is part of humankind’s oldest spiritual and healing practice. It focuses on ancient wisdom of the energetic inter-connectedness of all things, both the seen and un-seen in nature and beyond.
A Shamanic practitioner is “someone who acts as a bridge between the shamanic indigenous world and the modern world and honors the medicine and wisdom of these shamanic people to bring healing and balance.”
Shamans relate to the whole person from an energetic level. Physical, emotional and spiritual issues have an energetic origin, which leaves an imprint on the Energy Field of the individual. These events can be recent, beyond recall, ancestral or even karmic. Shamans track the origins of a symptom to its source through a variety of methods and remove the imprint and its influence on an individual’s health and well being. The individual can then find freedom from old limited thoughts and behavior patterns, connect to their limitless possibilities and begin to write new life stories for themselves.
A shamanic energy healing session with me lasts approximately 75 minutes, and each session is different. Sessions may focus on chakra and energy field clearing and illumination, power loss, soul loss, intrusions, ancestral healing, energetic tears , and imprints in one’s luminous energy field.
People experiencing any of the following may be candidates for shamanic energy work:
- Feelings of sadness, worthlessness and emptiness
- Past emotional traumas
- Patterns of repetitive negative behavior
- Apathy, numbness, lack of vitality, or fatigue
- Emotional or health issues related to your ancestry
- An unhealthy attachment to any individual
- Chronic illness or weak immune system
- An inclination toward addictions and destructive behaviors
- Mood swings or personality shifts
- Feelings of of detachment from your life
I offer shamanic energy healing sessions in person and around the world virtually.

Energy and Art
Art has always been the creative thread in the tapestry of my life. It connects me to the seen and the unseen, to this world and to others, and to the web of inter-connectedness that is everything. My art is about energy. The energy of the five elements of earth, fire, water, air, and aether. And at the heart of this energy
Energy and Art
Art has always been the creative thread in the tapestry of my life. It connects me to the seen and the unseen, to this world and to others, and to the web of inter-connectedness that is everything. My art is about energy. The energy of the five elements of earth, fire, water, air, and aether. And at the heart of this energy is light.
I see my art as a connective experience between the artist and the viewer. I believe a blank canvas, an open space, or an object to be photographed is an invitation to engage in a creative process that summons the energy and connects the viewer, the artist, the artwork and the energy to something more than just what can be seen.

I hope you enjoy the work I have presented here. These paintings, photographs and installations represent selected pieces that I have created over the past several years that have been displayed in numerous galleries and/or purchased for personal collections from individuals around the world.
Testimonials
“Tom is an extraordinary shaman. He helped me to navigate a complex road in my development as a human being and I will forever be grateful to him. His guidance during those dangerous curves in the road kept me safe. Gently, calmly and gracefully he helped me to resolve some very difficult life experiences. It was grace to work with him and in humility and gratitude, I thank him for his kindness.”
"I had the good fortune of meeting Tom during a workshop concerning Shamanic practices. Not only is Tom an incredible teacher and facilitator, but the experience demonstrated his ability to heal and it ultimately led to further sessions working around some of my current struggles. Tom is kind, generous, and intuitive and his ability to tap into deep wounds and traumas has translated to some transformative breakthroughs for me. I have visited other Shamans, but Tom's connection to the spiritual world, his radical caring, and his commitment to clients is unmatched. I am deeply grateful that the universe connected our paths and am excited for continued work! "
"Tom enabled me to clear lifetime issues hampering my well-being and my connection to my family. After working with my ancestors, he opened a pathway for me. Now I feel very powerful and much more free in my heartspace. He has brought light, understanding, and healing for which I am very grateful!"
“Thank you for the powerful healing work you have done with me. I feel it more deeply than any work I have ever had in my life. And I have had a LOT of work. So I am just deeply grateful to have found you.“
“Thank you again for the amazing work you did with me. I have been feeling very different. Definitely some long term changes that happened during our session. It just seems like I understand and can forgive. And I am remembering to let love into my body, love in all it’s forms.
“Dear Tom, Thank you for the extraordinary session. It was life changing - again.“
"I have had four sessions with Tom over the years and having experience with other Shamanic healers I can attest that Tom's abilities are exceptional. The results I get vary depending on what we work on. After one session where we did an extraction I had remarkable improvements in my health and overall well-being. Whereas in other sessions when we worked on more subtle energies, I feel an overwhelming sense of peace and connectedness to myself and the world around me.”
“Just two sessions with Tom improved my confidence, mental clarity, and overall happiness. His work moved so much blocked energy out of my body, I literally stood taller.“
“I have visited many a Shaman in my life but I have to say Tom excels above all others. He not only gives you a Shamanic Healing Session but lives it! He really takes the time to understand why you need one, what has been your journey thus far and where you want to go. He is truly the REAL THING, very professional, conducting himself in the most correct manner that makes one feel safe and comfortable at all times. When I got off his table after the session I couldn't stop giggling with joy because of what he was able to heal during our session. I strongly recommend Tom to anyone seeking to bring Peace, Balance and Happiness back into their lives.”
