Reverend Tom Cratsley, B.S.
Director
Spiritual Healing
An exceptionally gifted healer, counselor, and teacher who has devoted much of his career to exploring ways of “healing from the spiritual heart.” A graduate of the University of Buffalo, he went on to study psychology and religion at Harvard Divinity School. Tom also studied with renowned medium Rev. Edith Sandy Wendling. Tom’s work has been strongly influenced by the ideas of psychiatrist Roberto Assagioli, a groundbreaker in the fields of humanistic and transpersonal psychology; by Robert Fritz, for his pioneering work in structural thinking and the creative process (and for whom Tom created and taught a class in the development of intuition); and by Andrew Jackson Davis, the 19th-century mystic who developed a model of the human psyche based on levels of perception. Tom is the Director and a faculty member of the School of Spiritual Healing and Prophecy. Tom’s joyful, gentle approach to teaching and healing opens the hearts of all who work with him. www.tomcratsley.com |
