About Me
Linda Williams
I am a practitioner of shamanic healing and divination. My work is grounded in ancient traditions that view illness not only as a physical condition, but also as a spiritual imbalance.
At this time, I offer shamanic healing exclusively. I look forward to working with you. Thank you for choosing me.
About Shamanism
Shamanic healing works on the spiritual dimension of illness, often addressing what lies beneath emotional or physical challenges. As a practitioner, I work in partnership with compassionate, helping spirits—trusted allies I have developed strong relationships with—to bring forward healing and insight for clients.
Shamanism is the world’s oldest spiritual healing practice, rooted in traditions that span across time and cultures. It involves entering an altered state of consciousness—typically through the rhythmic sound of drumming or rattling—known as sonic driving. In this state, the practitioner connects with compassionate helping spirits to receive advice, healing, and insight, which is then brought back into ordinary reality to the client.
A shamanic practitioner acts as an intermediary between the spiritual and physical worlds, working to restore balance, and wholeness.
One contemporary approach is Core Shamanism, developed by anthropologist Dr. Michael Harner. Core Shamanism distills universal methods of shamanic practice, removing culturally specific rituals, beliefs, or religious frameworks. It is a spiritual methodology, not a religion, and is accessible to anyone seeking personal or spiritual healing. (Reference: Shamanism.org)
Please note: I am not a licensed physician or therapist. My services are not medical treatments and are not licensed or regulated by the State of California. Shamanic healing is a spiritual practice and should be considered a complementary, not substitute, approach to health and well-being.
Training and Education

2018: Began classes at the Foundation of Shamanic Studies, attending numerous hours of online and in-person training which included completion of Harner Shamanic Counseling with The Foundation of Shamanic Studies
2019: I competed yoga school training and have taught yoga at a local community center
