Some Comments From Clients

“I'm still amazed at how my body has reacted positively to that [spiritual] healing from you back in May. It was slow to show up but it seems to be a steady improvement! I'm truly impressed!”

“Remember that reading you gave me five years ago? After that reading, two physical issues I had went away and never came back.”

“I've had chronic back pains my entire life, and now they are gone forever!” (Several clients have told me this.)

“I just thought I'd tell you. You said it might take a few months for me to notice a difference. It was so gradual, I didn't realize the change until a few months ago.”

“You were dead on with what you told me.”

I always feel so safe and comfortable with you.


Intuitive Animal Readings

Over the years, I've been asked to do a number of psychic readings for people's animal companions—horses, dogs, and cats, mostly. In doing so, I have been amazed, delighted, and sometimes awed by what our animal friends have to say when given a chance. Here's your chance to find out more about your own beloved animal companion or companions!


Disclaimer

Before contacting me for a reading, please be sure to read my disclaimer! Although people have experienced dramatic physical changes during readings with me, I cannot and do not claim to be a healer in the physical sense. What I am giving is spiritual counsel and advice with spiritually healing energies; the rest is up to you.


How To Contact Me

To make arrangements for a reading, contact me by email (readings@thelighthouseonline.com) or call me at (707) 568-0999.


Background

I believe in a spiritual existence that encompasses our reality, and that we get spiritual information and assistance when we need it. What we do with that information is up to us, and we can (and often do) ignore perfectly good information because we are not ready to hear it. (I include myself in that statement!)

However, if someone contacts me for a reading, I believe that they are ready to hear what comes through, and they are willing to do whatever it takes to improve themselves and their lives.

My readings reflect this belief and orientation. Spirits and psychics have specialties and interests; the spirits I work with, as am I, are most interested in people's spiritual welfare and in their overall advancement as a spirit. Any information I receive, no matter what the subject, is tinged with spiritual considerations.

Accuracy

I've said this elsewhere, but it bears repeating. No psychic is 100% accurate 100% of the time. And even though information may be correct for the moment it is conveyed, it is hard to say that something will or will not definitely occur in the future. Because of free will, the future is not set in stone. Therefore, I can only give an answer in terms of how probable it is to occur ("90% yes," or "80% no," for example). This is based on the situation as it is now. If a person changes his or her mind or makes some other changes, the future likewise will change.

About My Readings

When we experience events, we make decisions, decisions that can span and affect many lifetimes for good or ill.

For example, if you decide that it is a truth about yourself and your reality that you don't deserve to be loved, you will encounter people and experiences lifetime after lifetime that “prove” that you are right. This won't change until you change your mind about yourself.

During a reading with me, you will receive information that can help you make different decisions. The effects from those different decisions will spread through time and space, reaching all those different aspects of you that were affected by the original decision.

During a session, when you or some aspect of you makes such a life-changing decision, I feel the energy as a shift in my heart. When I feel that shift, I know that something has changed in your spirit. I also know that the change is permanent. Although sometimes a change is instantly apparent, it can take time for the change to become obvious to you (usually no more than a few months). However long it takes, when I feel that shift, I know the change will come.

I have been told many times that some problem a person had been struggling with went away and never came back after such a shift. Often, the change they notice is physical, such as chronic back problems, though what I am doing is making available energies for healing on the spirit level. But since I believe that everything starts and ends in spirit, that makes sense. You heal on a spiritual level, and you can then bring forth that healing in your own life however you wish.

How I can help you

I can help provide intelligent, solid, grounded information in a number of ways and areas of your life:

You won’t necessarily get all this in one reading, though you might! But normally, you will be contacting me about some specific questions and issues you have, and that will involve a subset of the skills listed above.

About My Talents

I’ve written a great deal about psychics in this article. In summary, every psychic has his or her own style, strengths, gifts, and specialties. Some psychics are great. Some psychics aren’t that great. Psychics don’t always have a very high level of awareness or spirituality, either. Psychics range in accuracy from close to zero percent to 80 percent and sometimes better, though no psychic is one hundred percent accurate one hundred percent of the time. A psychic’s level of awareness and ethics affect how they come across and the types of readings they give.

I am very good at reading people—who they are, what kind of person they are, and what their souls are like. I can “see” who a person really is, even when they themselves are not aware of who they are or what their issues are. I am also very good at identifying core life issues, often ones that affect many lifetimes. When I look at these issues, I can contribute information that makes it possible for you to make new, healthier decisions that span all your lives. I can feel the shift in energy when my clients make decisions that are life-affecting, and my more aware clients can feel the shifts too.

Note that I am not doing the changing for you. It is completely and 100% up to you to decide what, if anything, you do with the information I provide. My role is to provide the information. I also provide validation; most of the time, you will already know most of what I have to say about you and your situation. What I bring to the table that is new is additional information about situations from a higher perspective; it is that information that we all eventually will be able to access ourselves, but right now, most of us need to use specialists in spirit communications, such as myself, to get that information.

How I Get My Information

When I do a reading, I use several different ways to access information:

Usually, I use all three sources, and I also let my clients know where the information is coming from, so they can make up their own minds about it.

What To Expect in a Reading

When I give a reading, I do the following. Which of these I do in any given reading depends on what you want and how much time we have.

  1. At the start, I tune into you psychically and also ask my spirit contacts for information on you. (Sometimes, I start doing this before the reading officially starts.) I then speak about the issues I “see” and pass on any initial information from the spirits who are present.
  2. Usually after step 1, you ask questions, so we can address the issues they are most concerned about. (It isn't mandatory, but it can be helpful to write down your questions before the reading.) Note that as I continue your reading, my connection deepens, so that later in the reading I might get more precise or specific information.
  3. At some point, and it can come at any time after step 1, I address other lifetimes that you are living, lifetimes that are relevant to the current one. It is at this point that I very often feel shifts in your energy as you make life-altering decisions at a level that affects multiple lifetimes.

    I don’t always address other lifetimes; it depends on many factors, including how much energetic and spiritual work we’ve already done in the reading. It also depends on how long the reading was scheduled to be. Shorter readings normally address issues that are more “everyday”; longer readings tend to address the big stuff.

    I also don't always feel shifts. Those are subject to a lot of factors, including your own spirit's path and intentions.
  4. Sometimes, I do remote energy work on you using a combination of my Reiki training and my training from Metatron, who is a master of spiritual healing.
  5. On very rare occasions, I might do a guided visualization as directed by my spirit contacts. These guided visualizations are always unique; in all my years of public and private channelings and private readings, my spirit contacts have never repeated themselves. The guided visualization is a gentle spiritual/energetic healing process that digs very deeply into your soul and brings forth healthy new growth.
  6. If you wish, I will record the reading, make a CD or CDs, and will mail them to you. The audio recording is a courtesy and is not an official part of the reading; I say this because sometimes the recording just doesn't work, so I can't promise it. In addition, it usually takes me another hour or two to prepare the audio files, so it is truly a gift and a courtesy. If you want to make absolutely sure you get a recording, you might also want to make arrangements to record the session on your end.

    If I prepare audio files for your sessions, after you confirm that you have received the CDs, I erase the recordings I made out of respect for your privacy. That means you have the one and only recording of the session.

Preparing for a Reading

Before your reading with me, it is useful to prepare a list of the questions you want to ask. I suggest this because, once you and I are in the reading space, we are both in a state of mind that is slightly apart from normal reality. In that state, you may feel that you already know the answers, or that you have no questions to ask. This is because, with my help, during the reading you are connecting more strongly with your own higher self and your own inner sense of knowing. In that state, things seem so much clearer!

But later, when you are back in your normal state of consciousness, you may wish you had asked those questions. By having a list, you can go ahead and ask those questions and have them answered.

Another benefit of writing down your questions beforehand is that it helps clarify why you are asking for the reading and what you hope to get out of it. You may even find that, in writing the questions, you already have your own answers for some or all of your questions.

Have some water on hand during the reading, and make sure you will be uninterrupted if at all possible. Also, don’t plan anything for the rest of the day, if possible, so that any spiritual or energetic healings that took place have a chance to sink in. If being active later can’t be avoided, that’s okay. Everything will work out in the grand scheme of things.
