How did you discover and cultivate your gifts as a psychic medium?
I always had a sense I couldn’t explain that there was more to life than what I had believed it to be, and I had this uncanny ability to know someone’s intentions when I would have a conversation with them, or knew something wasn’t going to happen the way the person had hoped, or was trying for.
Can you explain the different types of readings and alternative healing modalities you provide, such as Reiki, Psychometry, Psychic/card readings, and Past Life Regression? How do these modalities contribute to the spiritual growth and guidance of your clients?
Medium reading is where we can connect with loved ones that have passed, Psychometry is being able to read the energy of an item a person had or has, such a wallet, a necklace, a license or a blanket. Psychic/Card Readings are reading the energy of the person and giving guidance, or messages to the person. Past Life Regression is where the client would go through a guided meditation and visit an average of three lives in one session and then it is discussed in the event the client doesn’t remember what they shared, and see if we can tie the lives together for a lesson the client hasn’t learned yet, or why something keeps repeating. Reiki is a form of energy healing that helps speed up the healing process and helps lessen Anxiety and promotes a feeling of calmness.
It helps the client stay on the right path or get on the right path, if there’s something that the client is missing, or doesn’t know which way is the best direction to go in.
What is the significance and impact of conducting readings in various formats, such as in-person, over the phone, or through digital platforms like Skype or Zoom? Are there any differences in the experiences or outcomes for clients?
When we have only been reading for a few years, it is harder to read someone over the phone or through video calls, such as Skype or Zoom. After some experience, there is no difference in the experience or outcome for the clients.
In what ways do you tailor your services to accommodate different settings, such as private readings, house parties, corporate events, or fundraisers? How does the collective energy of a group setting influence the readings or healing sessions you facilitate?
For house parties, in the interests of time, I usually offer readings (Medium, Psychic/Card, Psychometry) for 15 minute increments for individual readings, or read everyone as a group. I offer both options for corporate events and fundraisers. Reiki sessions have only been private in my office. As for the readings for the collective energy of a group, it is very common for it to be a family, or a group of people that know the same person that has passed, or different clients in the group going through similar situations.
How has your own spirituality developed whilst working with others in this light?
I actually have a stronger faith in a higher power, and learned that it really doesn’t matter how we pray, or how we learned to pray. The prayers are always heard and answered in the same way, and regardless of the language, too! I learned that everyone goes to the same place on the Spirit side, there’s no separation there. There’s also no coincidence, either. When the same thing keeps coming up, the Spirit side is trying to tell us what direction to go in, or to go in the opposite direction.
