As a young child, my “gifts“ seemed to be exciting and fun. Seeing, talking to and playing with spirits was enchanting. yet traditional Italian Catholic parents continued to explain to me I was fantasizing and to stop thinking about those things.

Later as a young adult, I had no practical use for any of it. When bringing it up to friends and family, I seemed to be labeled “weird” or “nutty”. I remember several times trying to guess who my next boyfriend would be with NO success. (That’s kind of embarrassing now.) I even at age 26 had a near-death experience (NDE) and it truly changed me forever.

Yet I hid this “calling” and instead retreated into a “normal” mainstream life by going to college (Manchester University and the University of Aberdeen) where I received a Ph.D. in Philosophy. I followed that over the years with becoming a Board Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, a Certified Neurolinguistic Programmer (NLP), an EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) Coach, a Certified Hypnobirthing Trainer, I am a Certified Past Life and Progression Life Therapist and Certified 5th Path and 7th Path Practitioner and a Certified Life Coach. I am an author and public speaker.

After years of traditional studies, degrees, and certifications, trying to do everything by Western standards, I finally got tired of saying “I’m not psychic but ” ……….. Now (since 2008) I have admitted to my patients and clients that I am blessed with “seeing” (clairvoyance), “hearing” (clairaudience), “a knowing” (Claircognizance) and “smelling” (yes smelling – called Clairalience), things from the other side during their sessions with me.
