FAQ

How does this work?

That’s a great question! For readings, I tune into the energy of my client’s unconscious mind (with permission), and I translate what I receive into words. I am not sure I can explain the process in significant detail. It is a bit like using a calculator – I’m not quite sure exactly *how* the calculator figures up the math, but based on the results I know it does this somehow.

Transpersonal Coaching is a bit different. It involves the direction I’m guided to take via intuition, but in most cases coaching is more about helping you reach your goals in a more active way. A reading is a way to get information about some area of yourself or your life, and coaching is a way to develop new tools and resources to play with your lifestyle design so that it comes closer to your desired results.

Both services are partnerships, and coaching involves more action or conscious participation on your part. Readings may include suggestions or recommendations, but they are primarily about delivering a translation of the intuitive information I receive.

As for the your part in the process, here’s the steps you need to take:

1) Submit payment for your desired service.

2) Keep an eye on your inbox. I will contact you within 24 hours (barring extreme circumstances) to confirm your purchase. If you book a reading, my initial email will include a request for to articulate what you’d like to focus on. If you book coaching sessions, your initial email from me will include a brief form to complete.

3) Once I receive  your response to this introductory message, I’ll ask additional questions if needed and begin working on your service.

Feel free to contact me if you have questions about the process.

Why Email?

Many psychics and intuitives prefer to work with clients over the phone or in person. At this time, it is actually better for everyone if I focus on providing readings via email. I don’t need to connect with you in the present moment to tune into your energy. I simply tune into the energy you share by communicating through words. Each individual has a unique energy signature, which we are transmitting constantly. Many people notice information from this signal, though they may not always be conscious of that. I use the energy signature you transmit with your message like a telephone number so I can be sure I’m getting the right information from the web of energy that connects everything.

I maintain a stronger connection to the etheric level by minimizing how much I interact with others in “real-time.” I also get much more information during a real-time connection, and it’s easier for me to focus on what you want to hear about through email messages. Real-time readings can involve tangents or details on situations you’re not asking about, and email as a medium keeps things more focused.

I don’t rely on pendulums, tarot cards, birth charts or other divination tools in my readings. I use myself much like a tool of divination, and this process works far better if I can focus all my attention on receiving and translating the information that comes through.

As for coaching sessions, I find both members in the partnership have more time to integrate changes, contemplate options, explore insights, etc. by working through email. This can also give you a better value.

For example, if someone purchases two sessions, that could end quickly. Since I work through email, I can guide the first session so it might include a span of time to work on the findings in the first session before we move to the second one. In this way, a client may come away with more positive gains than they would through phone calls on subsequent days.

You get better quality through email services, because it’s easier for me to focus on what you’re asking me to do. This also means we don’t have to figure out time zone differences, and the work can be more accessible to English-speakers all over the world :-)

What Should I Expect?

People can have a variety of experiences during a reading. You may feel a range of emotions as you go over your message. More than one client has reported laughing at the content of the reading. Sometimes people cry, but they always report it as an overwhelmingly positive experience if this happens. It may be relief at finally feeling seen for your truest self.

You may also feel a sense of lightness, fullness, wholeness as you go over your reading. You may feel nothing at all, or you may feel so many different things it’s hard to put them into words. Some client testimonials are available on my site, if you’d like to hear from them directly about their experience.

As for the coaching, well, it works as well as you persist with it. I’ve had clients take care from a place of inspiration and dedication to go with me on the journey toward their goals, and they come out much closer to those goals than they were before.

I’ve also had a few clients who gained a more temporary fix for their concerns. Neither way is right or wrong. I want you to get value from our work, but I cannot make you do something (nor do I want to).

If you’re thinking about booking some coaching sessions, I recommend asking yourself how dedicated you feel to achieving your desired results. I cannot force you to work on your goals.

Those who get the most out of the coaching service are those who feel intrinsically motivated to make progress. It comes from inside of them. They provide the fire and wood – I provide kindling and matches. Put another way, those who get the most from coaching are those who take full responsibility for their progress.

What If I Feel Skeptical?

For the best results, it might help to be as open as possible to what comes through for your chosen focus area. However, if you want to come from a place of doubt and skepticism, that’s okay too! Intuitive work is often not as specific as sharing what brand of clothing you are wearing or what you ate for breakfast. Your unconscious mind will likely have no interest in focusing on information like that – the unconscious typically likes to get to the meat!

I say it is okay if you come from a place of doubt and skepticism – and that is certainly true – but you will probably get better results from a place of neutrality. This does not mean you must believe in all I say I do, as that would be total acceptance and I’m not talking about that here. I am talking about being in a neutral place with your attitude regarding whether I can provide what you’re inviting me to provide – not assuming I can or that I cannot provide it.

A neutral or positive attitude about the ability to receive intuitive information supports the process because it’s easier for me to connect and provide what you’re asking for that way, due to how the various elements of the process align with each other. Feeling neutral or positive about the process of getting a reading creates greater connectivity, and this connectivity enhances the flow of information.

If you’re feeling significant doubt or skepticism, I’ll also be reading the skeptical energy of your communication and it mixes in with everything else. I use words like “interference” to explain the effect of skepticism but I mean it as a totally neutral term. So, you can minimize that interference by approaching the work from a place of neutrality, and the end result will be of better quality for you. Does this mean I cannot do a reading for someone who feels skeptical? No, but it does mean you’re likely to get a better quality reading if you are not transmitting a skeptical signal.

Which means, the information I’m sharing here about a skeptical attitude is actually offered so you get maximum benefit for your involvement. I have no interest in judging or criticizing anyone who chooses a skeptical attitude, as their choice is not really my business. I’m just explaining that you are also part of the process, and if you want the best quality results, it can help to feel neutral about the work.


How Can I Maximize the Value of a Reading?

Remember that the process usually matches the “flavor” of information you offer. So, a clear and specific focus is more likely to give you a clear and specific reading. If you are not clear on what, exactly, you want your reading to be about, then your reading is probably going to be fuzzy itself. This is due to how the energies mix together, and due to the effect of “energy signature” I discussed above.

For example, if you ask for the reading to touch on which career is right for you, and you do not mention anything else, the reading may be more general than you want it to be, because the process tends to match your communication.

If you are torn between two specific careers, list them, and ask which one is a better match for your purpose and core-level gifts, the results for that question will be more specific because I will immediately receive information about which option resonates at the deepest layer of yourself. This would be true even if you shared no verbal information about your personality.

More than that, it seems when clients provide a targeted focus like this, the reading addresses the specific focus and naturally expands to include additional information that resonates for the client – this seems to be even more common when the client has a neutral or positive attitude about the work (because that enhances connectivity).

Using that same example, I might receive the best choice between the career options, naturally start receiving and translating information about the client’s purpose and core-level gifts, and the reading could even naturally flow into other lifetimes where the individual did similar work. All as an organic side effect of the clear, specific focus for the reading.

(This should go without saying, but the above is an example only. I do not guarantee that a question about career will always flow into those other themes, as each reading is unique. The example is meant to demonstrate the natural benefits of having a clear, specific focus. I would also add that a reading progressing like that is much more likely if the client feels neutral or positive about the process because the client would transmit a signal of connectedness that supports the flow of information.)

You truly are free to be as general or as specific as you like, and I can provide a reading from a general focus, but where your focus falls on this continuum between general and specific is a good indicator of where the results will also fall – because, as I said, the process tends to match the communication you offer.

That means a clear, reasonably specific focus for your reading can hone in on what you want to hear about, and there might then be more resources available for me to receive and translate other information your unconscious mind sees as beneficial for you – because less of the process must be devoted to locating the desired information in the vastness of the information I automatically access when I do this work. This work is a collaboration and a partnership with you as the client, and your participation in the process can greatly affect the results.

What if I want to get another reading?

This is your choice. Since each of my services involve something different, it is fine if you’d like to get more than one service from me at various times. I do not currently have a blanket policy about how long clients must wait between readings, so I consult my own guidance about the highest good for each situation. Generally, I prefer that clients wait about three months between readings, and I don’t currently have a guideline about coaching. I also have an article that goes into some considerations related to this topic.

My responses to these questions are intended to assist you in making an informed decision about this work. I offer these services with great love, and I appreciate your interest. If you have any questions at this point, feel free to contact me.
