Are you feeling lost or stuck in a rut? Psychic readings can offer a unique perspective on your life’s journey, helping you discover your hidden potential and soul purpose. In this post, Mystic Mag is interviewing Lisa Campion, a renowned psychic and healer, who shared her fascinating story and explained how she can help you achieve greater self-awareness and inner peace.
When did you first know that being a Psychic was your calling and how did it come about?
I was definitely one of those “I see dead people” kids. I grew up in the 1970s and 80s just outside Boston, Massachusetts, and spent most of my childhood trying to figure out what was wrong with me and how to make it stop, while trying to appear normal in public, just like Juliette did.
My very first memories are of a psychic nature, seeing colors around people, animals, and plants as well as experiencing the presence of all manner of spirits. To add to this, I grew up in a rather haunted house, a big Victorian beauty, where I used to wake up with the spirits of dead people standing over my bed, wanting to hang out and talk. It was confusing to me why other people couldn’t see the sad, lonely, “gray people” that I did.
My mother chalked it all up to my having an impressive array of invisible friends and a very active imagination. At least my hippy parents were relatively open to my experiences and didn’t try to totally shut them down or throw holy water on me, as happened to some of my fellow psychics. I felt lonely, confused, and isolated, however, and I spent a lot of time trying to fit in and hide my gifts, in order to avoid being labeled as crazy and strange.
I hunted through the local libraries for books about psychic experience and how to handle it, especially about how to shut it off. There wasn’t much, although I was happy to find Seth Speaks by Jane Roberts and the works of Edgar Cayce and Carlos Castaneda.
Most of my early paranormal education came from watching horror movies, since I had a life-changing experience when I saw the movie Poltergeist. There is a scene in the movie where the psychic Zelda explains what a ghost is and how they get stuck. I remember sitting in the movie theater with full-body chills as I realized there was such a thing as a professional psychic, and I swore to myself in that moment that I was going to do that. And I latched on to her brief explanation of what ghosts really are, why they get stuck, and how to move them on. I was so relieved that someone actually knew something about what was going on. It sparked a lifetime love of paranormal and horror movies, since I felt so validated by them and appreciative that I was not the only one having those experiences. I received an odd paranormal education by watching these movies and learned some things that actually were true along with other things that were highly entertaining in a Hollywood way but didn’t hold any metaphysical truth.
I was very lucky that my hippy parents took me to Transcendental Meditation when I was ten years old, since learning how to meditate at such a young age was formative for me and has been a vital part of my psychic and spiritual development ever since. I actually met the Maharishi, and he told me through his translator that he could see my gifts and that I was going to have a rough childhood, but that I needed to hang on because I was going to help a lot of people as an adult.
When I was in high school, our whole family did something called Silva Mind Control (these days called The Silva Method) where I received more training in meditation techniques as well as heard the term spirit guides for the first time. (Spirit guides are the helpful nonphysical beings that are here to assist us in our personal and spiritual growth. They could be angels, our beloved ancestors, or spiritual teachers. We will discuss spirit guides at length in chapter 5.)
At university, I studied martial arts and learned much valuable information about how to move energy in my body and the immense benefits of being grounded, disciplined, and physically strong. It was fantastic counterpoint to the more ethereal work I was doing in my psychic development training. During that time, I also welcomed the dawn of the New Age movement, which brought with it books about shamanism, channeling, and psychic development, as well as teachers on these subjects. I spent a few years working at a fabulous New Age bookstore, and I got some excellent training and mentorship with a shaman and a powerful psychic and channeler.
That was about the time that I started working as a psychic myself. I was nineteen years old and have been doing it ever since. When I first started doing readings for people, I could deliver the message, but had no way to help people through their emotional reactions to the messages that I gave them, so I also trained to be a therapist and added that to my tool kit. And then in 1999, I learned Reiki. At that time, I was starting to see colors and energy around people and also opened up some skills as a medical intuitive. I needed help understanding this new level of psychic perception, and one of my mentors suggested Reiki as a way to understand the human energy field more deeply. I have been practicing and teaching Reiki ever since then.
These days I use a combination of psychic work, Reiki, and spiritual counseling in my sessions, and I have shifted my focus to writing, teaching, and mentoring other healers and psychics. I feel passionately about training psychics, empaths, and healers to fully step into their gifts, since the world needs all the healers it can get right about now. My goal is to help people undergoing psychic openings to have an easier time than I did, since I had to learn it all the hard way.
When I was learning, there was no place to find information or a mentor, or to get help, and I suffered tremendously as a child, feeling like there was something really wrong with me. I am delighted to have become the mentor and teacher that I always wish I had, and this is the book that I yearned to find in the library when I was searching for answers.
What services do you offer?
I do psychic readings for people, something that I call Soul Reading. This is all about looking at who you are at the level of your soul. Maybe that is all about understanding your past lives, your contracts with your soul family or your life purpose. I have done a lot of readings over years and work a lot with people who are undergoing a psychic or spiritual opening.
I also have online classes where I teach Psychic Reiki and all levels of psychic development classes. If you want to develop your psychic abilities, you really need training to do it, and anyone can develop their psychic abilities. It’s a bit like musical or athletic ability, we all have some natural talent and it takes some practice and training to fully optimize whatever you have.
I also have a year-long apprentice program where I mentor people to become professional psychic healers. And just recently, I started a mystery school, called the Quantum Mystic Mystery School, which is really exciting!

What exactly is Energy Healing and how does it help?
Energy healing is a holistic practice that involves channeling healing energy into a person to restore balance and health. This ancient practice is based on the belief that our bodies have an energy field that is essential for our health and well-being. When this energy field is disrupted or blocked, it can lead to physical, emotional, or spiritual imbalances. Energy healers aim to clear these blockages, restore the flow of energy, and promote healing.
There are various forms of energy healing, including Reiki, Qi Gong, Pranic Healing, and Therapeutic Touch. Each modality has its unique approach, but the underlying principle remains the same: to enhance the body’s natural healing abilities. Energy healing can be used to address a wide range of conditions, from chronic pain and fatigue to emotional distress and mental health issues. Many people find it a valuable complement to conventional medical treatments, helping to reduce stress, alleviate symptoms, and improve overall well-being.
Energy healing sessions typically involve the healer using their hands to direct energy to specific areas of the body. This can be done with the hands placed directly on the body or held a few inches away. Some practitioners also use crystals, sound therapy, or other tools to enhance the healing process. While scientific research on energy healing is still limited, many people report experiencing profound benefits, including reduced pain, increased relaxation, and a greater sense of peace.
I practice and teach Reiki, which means “universal life energy” in Japanese, is one of the most well-known forms of energy healing. Developed in the early 20th century by Mikao Usui, Reiki involves the transfer of healing energy through the practitioner’s hands to the recipient. This energy is believed to flow through the practitioner’s hands, which are placed lightly on or near the recipient’s body in a series of positions.
A Reiki session typically lasts about an hour and is performed in a quiet, comfortable setting. The recipient remains fully clothed and may sit or lie down. The practitioner gently places their hands on or above the recipient’s body, allowing the Reiki energy to flow where it is needed most. Recipients often report feeling a warm, tingling sensation and a deep sense of relaxation during the session.
Reiki is used to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and enhance the body’s natural healing abilities. It is often sought out by individuals dealing with chronic pain, anxiety, depression, and other health issues. While the scientific understanding of how Reiki works is still evolving, many practitioners and recipients believe in its powerful ability to promote balance and well-being. Whether used as a standalone treatment or in conjunction with other therapies, Reiki offers a gentle, non-invasive approach to healing that can benefit individuals on multiple levels.
How can you help a person achieve inner peace?
I often work with people who are undergoing a crisis or who feel really stuck in their lives. In either case, having some spiritual insight can help us all move forward with more confidence in where we are going. It’s a crazy world out there right now, and having the gift of speaking to your higher self and your team of spirit guides can help us all gain direction and insight.
This type of healing work can also help release stuck emotional and energetic patterns that can leave us locked into repeating our past over and over again. Psychic readings, spiritual counseling and energy work really can give you hope, healing and a new perceptive on where you are in your life and also open up possibilities that you might now have considered before.
I feel that true inner peace arises from being who we really are. The more authentically we are living, the happier we are.
What can a person expect from your sessions?
While mostly, my work is about writing and teaching, I do still do private sessions. I also do group sessions which are very popular and super fun. In my sessions, you can expect a journey of discovery, insight, and revelation. We’ll explore the significant changes and challenges you’re experiencing, such as integrating past events, dealing with loss, or going through a profound spiritual transformation. Together, we’ll explore and deep dive into understanding your relationship with the divine, meeting your spirit guides, and healing past traumas.
Our time will be dedicated to examining your life from a spiritual perspective, communicating with your guides, and uncovering how your primary wounding influences your current patterns. Through this process, we’ll work towards helping you move into your highest potential.
Each session is unique and may include psychic information, spiritual counseling, and energy healing. Using Reiki and Full Spectrum Healing, I will clear and balance your energetic system, recharge your chakras, and realign your energy field. This can be especially supportive if you experience an emotional release during our time together.
What do you love most about your profession?
I really love helping people and also seeing people reach their potential. I love working with emerging psychics, healers and empaths and helping them understand and optimize their gifts because I believe the world needs all the healers it can get. I see this work as expanding the light out into the world. I want to create an army of healers to go out there and save the world. I had done so many 1-1 healing sessions, which I still love to do- and I knew there was a way to make a bigger impact and that is when I started writing books and creating training programs where I can mentor other healers to have the help that they need to light up their corner of the world.
It means a lot to me to do this work and I have real passion for it, a calling really. I mostly had to do it the hard way since when I started working, there just weren’t books or training classes for what I was wanting to do- to be an energy healer and psychic counselor. It was a rough and bumpy road and I made every mistake along the way, and I am very proud of where I am in my life and my work and continue to feel deep joy and gratitude at being able to live my life’s purpose.
And I still feel that passion today, it fills me with purpose and gives my life meaning and for that, I am deeply grateful.
