Why are some mediums called "psychic mediums"?
       From what I've seen, there's not a clear difference between someone who's called a "medium" and someone who's called a "psychic medium".
       It can be argued that all mediums are psychic while not all psychics are mediums, just as all surgeons are doctors but not all doctors are surgeons.

Why can't everybody communicate with people who have died?
       In my opinion, that ability is in all of us, to greater and lesser degrees. It's like musical ability -- some people can just manage a triangle in kindergarten while others go on to compose masterpieces that live for centuries. Some people have more potential to be mediums than others, but not all of them embrace it.

When you're communicating with people who have died, do you see them? Hear them?
       Trying to explain this is tricky for me -- it's like trying to tell someone what a certain food tastes like if they've never had anything like it. I frequently get a visual impression of the person who's coming through, as well as something called "claircognizance" or "clairsentience" which is are ways of saying I "just know" things, particularly in response to questions. I seldom hear a spirit voice, although it has happened to me.
     The kind of mediumship I practice is also sometimes called "mental mediumship" or "telepathic mediumship", as opposed to physical which involves manifestations such as objects moving during a reading, etc.
     Keep in mind, though, that there is no one way that all mediums experience their communications. Anything's possible and no method is better or worse than another.

How did you realize you were a medium?
     I was fortunate as a child in that no one I was close to died when I was that young. As an adult when relatives died, although of course I grieve their loss on this plane and wish they were still here and healthy and happy like anyone else, I've never felt that they were completely gone or out of touch, and I always felt the ability to reach out and find them.
     I took that for granted until two people who were especially important to me and my family died within a few months of each other. In discussing our grief with one another in the following months, I started to realize that, although certainly I wished they could be back with us, healthy and happy, still I felt much more connected with both of them than other members of my family did.
     It was also around that same time that I was feeling increasingly like something was missing from my life. I had a job I liked and was good at and there were no family rifts or anything like that, but I just felt like I could be, should be, doing something more with my life. It took a lot of sort of cosmic "hints" before I saw the big picture, but I finally realized that I could and should use my abilities to help other people. I began actively developing my skills and got to the point that other mediums were encouraging me to offer my services.

Do you provide other services?
     Yes, I read oracle cards and now also read tarot cards.
