Find out What our students say about the Therapeutic Shamanism courses

I recommend the college – I have found them to be friendly and extremely knowledgeable, and encouraging. I now have a community with other like-minded people.

Also, I have found the online access to be invaluable. It’s unlikely that I would have been able to join the groups otherwise. As a psychotherapist who practices online, I’m not put off by the online aspect at all, although I did sniff at the idea when I practised only face to face. I now know that it can be extremely effective and being online allows people from all over the globe to come together, which I think is a fantastic thing. It also saves time and unnecessary travel and is accessible for people who cannot travel easily.

The Therapeutic Shamanism courses are brilliant. They are endlessly fascinating, and skilfully delivered. The balance between theory and practice is just right, and I always come away from the weekends having learnt loads not just about shamanism, but about myself, other people, life, and the universe! Great stuff.

The course material is utterly absorbing, fascinating and eye-opening. The most amazing thing though is that it is also presented alongside practical exercises that not only bring the theory alive, but which bring almost immediate positive results. I have done a lot of psychotherapy in my life, and followed a lot of different spiritual practices too, but I have never come across something that is so effective so quickly, and with the added (but, not to be sneezed at!) bonus of being immensely enjoyable too.

As a psychotherapist, I absolutely love these courses. As well as benefiting me personally, the knowledge and insights from the courses has both opened up and deepened my work with clients, and as a result, I can see hugely positive changes I them too.

I’ve been so impressed by the skill and care of the teaching team and the seam of integrity that shines through always, that I have no hesitation in continuing my journey with you all. And with your excellent books forming a keeping-it-real backbone of guidance, resource, and inspiration I feel supported and well equipped to undertake that journey.

The Three Ravens College of Therapeutic Shamanism and Animism founded by Paul Francis, provides a more rich and efficient form of Shamanism than others I’ve given my time to over many years. My practice, therefore, has been utterly transformed, first through reading Paul’s books, then through taking the courses. I’m preparing to take my 5th course in November. This approach takes you far deeper shamanically whilst providing invaluable psychological and emotional support. Rooting into an animist path feels like finally finding home after a long search. Paul is a wise, compassionate, sensitive man who teaches with sparkling clarity, humour, and enthusiasm. I’ve found the Signal community groups and the Three Ravens team to be welcoming and supportive. I’m loving this work. My understanding has grown exponentially and I’ve found a more joyful way of walking through life following these soulful, grounding practices.

This course taught me how to step away from what it means to be human and to really embrace the healing offered by other People. It definitely widened my senses and opened a whole new level of experience available in the lower world. If you want to learn shapeshifting and working with different types of consciousness in journeys, this is the course for you. [Animal, Plant, Standing and Stone People]
