The Ethics of Being Psychic

Just like any other ability, being psychic is a form of power and responsibility.

Because of that, I have certain ethics and rules that I've learned from my years as a psychologist, from years of training in psychic work, and from my own experiences with other psychics -- good, bad, or in the middle.

Outside of sessions, I don't read people's energy, ask for intuitive information about them, offer intuitive insights, or heal people or animals without their permission!

This is about mutual respect.

I'll never forget one reading done -- at dinner -- by a psychic who used to be a friend. She told me in-depth information about a trauma I experienced and I left feeling shaken and overwhelmed. I hadn't asked her for this!

Sometimes, the best training is from experience!

As a result, I ask my guides not to share anything about friends unless they really want the person to know something, and to share only what's pertinent in the session, often in the form of healing tools and confirming or validating information to the client.

You may not know what happens before a session, but I can tell you: I always clear and ground my energy, call in support from the higher realms, and ask the client intuitively if she/he/they would like to receive a clearing and a healing before the session. If they say yes, they receive it. If no, I still clear beings that might affect me or the session, but I don't do more than that.

Boundaries are important. If I'm not the right fit, I let people know.

For example, I'm not a medical intuitive.

I don't typically predict the future (because it's always changing when you clear and heal energy and patterns), and I don't work with people who are in the midst of a deep depression, struggling with any substance abuse issues, or coping with trauma.

This is out of deep respect for each person's needs.

I've also learned from expeirence that this work isn't for everyone.

It's really for intuitive, kind, and self-reflective people who want to be the fullest expression of themselves and who have a good support system (which could include a therapist), and who know how to cope with their feelings.

I want this work to work!

And, it's a collaborative experience on all levels!

As an example, almost every time I watch 20/20, for example, the spirit of the person who "died" comes to me to tell me they're alright.

The first time it happened, it was quite a shock!

As I sobbed after watching an episode of a woman who was murdered by her abusive husband, her spirit actually came in and physically tapped me on the shoulder, saying,

Miss ... Miss... it's okay! I'm alright! I'm alright!

I sat back and asked,

"But why did you have to die this way? It was so awful!'

She shrugged and responded calmly,

I was here to learn self-love and this was the way.

It's okay! I'm okay!

This was a phenomenal shift in my thinking!

She wasn't hurting anymore.

As a human, I couldn't see this from the show.

But as a psychic, I could feel her calm energy and it soothed my heart. 💗

And, in response to her death, her family created an organization that assists women in abusive relationships to recognize the signs of abuse and get away from their abusers. They took their grief and put it into something profoundly powerful.

My spirit guides pointed out to me,

"Do you see? Her death was not in vain. A larger healing is taking place because of her life!"

This doesn't mean that what happened to her was good. It wasn't. If someone had stepped in, would she have learned self-love?

I don't know.

But what I do know is that we can be a source of healing for ourselves and each other.

And that's the power of all of us healing together. 💖
