In my earlier years, when I was so active in the Unity Church, there was one song that always played in my heart: “Spirit of the living God come alive in me. Spirit of the living God come alive in me now. Melt me, mold me, fill me use me.” That song resonated so deeply within me that it carried me through more than one rough patch.

Those words could have been, just as rightly, “SPIRIT OF LIGHT come alive in me”, “SPIRIT OF LOVE come alive in me”, or even “ALMIGHTY COSMIC I AM come alive in me now”. All of those names for the wonderful supportive energy that gives us life ring true. Any action taken by one of us in the essence of Love, Light or I Am that I Am is surely a blessing to all those touched.

Now is the most exciting of times to be alive on this earth. Whatever your religion, your occupation, your endeavors, you have the opportunity to shine so brightly as to enhance the world and all those people and creatures who occupy it.

You and I are Love’s creation. You and I can truly be Emissaries of the Light. That is our design. Together we are a mighty force for the highest good if we choose to be so.

As a counselor I have had more than one person come to me talking about “the end times”. Some of my clients come filled with fear because of what others have said to them regarding the disastrous events foretold in the coming year 2012.

Yes, the three years between now and that year will be filled with many changes. We have already seen the tumult in the economy and other social structures. MY BELIEF IS THAT THIS IS NOT A TIME OF DISASTER BUT RATHER A TIME OF MIRACULOUS OPPORTUNITIES.

I see the discomfort caused by these changes as leading to multiple opportunities for creating a greatly enhanced life for us and our earth. Yes, these changes can feel uncomfortable but sometimes it takes discomfort for humans to decide to take action. Sometimes it takes an imbalance to cause us to actively seek harmony and balance.

You and I together can help Mother Nature to heal. You and I together can help all people to recognize their divinity and to raise their humanness to Spirit-lead heights.

I suggest each of us begin our day accessing our innate abilities to shine the light we are. We can be the peace, the light and the love in whatever situation we find ourselves. Individually and collectively we can be the ones who bring the changes for the highest and best, the most positive directions and possibilities.

This is my best day yet! Why? Because I choose to be flowing, glowing, radiating Light. I choose to shine and be a blessing wherever I go, wherever I find myself. I invite you to choose along with me.

May the blessing that you are radiate and shine on all.

My work is my joy. I love to help through my counseling and teaching. If you would like a confidential appointment for a life path enhancing reading or if you wish to contact a departed loved one, call me today. Bring all your questions. I will access your personal guides and teachers for life affirming answers.

Your private reading is available either in person in my studio or by telephone. It is your voice and your energy combined with that of your guides, that allow me to bring the best information to you.

How do you relate to your world? Do you give it and its occupants kisses? Happy loving thoughts? Appreciation for each situation and experience? Perhaps you lend your world some constructive criticism or occasionally harsh judgment? Are you sending peace to all those around you or busy being an irritant?

How does your world relate to you? Do you feel that it surrounds you with abundance and joyful support? Or are you sure that something, someone, out there is plotting to get you? Are you full of fear, feeling that everything is about to crash down around your ears?

Either way you can be sure there is an EQUAL GIVE AND TAKE happening between you and your world. You and your world are busy working out a BALANCE according to your words, thoughts, and emotions.

Just to assure you that I am not pointing an accusing finger at anyone; let me tell you a story of my own. It was a short time ago, just about the 12th of this past October when I was in to my second day of driving from the farthest point of Arkansas to my home church in Florida.

I was bored. Driving, driving, and driving the back roads in Tennessee with not a lot of freeway progress. It must have been around 9 in the morning when I couldn’t stand the repetitiveness and the mist on the windshield anymore and decided to stop at fast food Hardee’s. Some of you may be familiar with their sugar and raisin biscuits. Nothing like a little sugar to give me that temporary lift!

When I entered the restaurant I realized the energy of the customers pretty much matched mine and the energy created by the gray weather. It was low! Not many words being spoken there. So I went to the far corner of the place and sat at a tiny little table in silence.

After eating I suddenly realized what I was doing. I said to myself: “Lois, you’re being silly. You like people, what are you doing way over here?” I was about to leave when I got up with my tray but then I stopped right in the center of the restaurant.

Using as smiling and loud a voice as I could muster, I looked around the room and I said “Do you know what’s good about this weather? There’s very little chance of sunburn!” Well that broke the energy. People were laughing. Asking me which direction I was headed. Wishing me a safe journey.

How little effort on my part or yours to bring a little giggle, some joy to one person or a roomful. I intend to do it more often.

As long as I am reminiscing, I might as well tell one more story. One of my favorite stores is The Dollar Tree and why not? There is always some new exciting trinket for a buck. But this particular day I arrived in the store searching for a black marker. As I stood in the pen and paper aisle, I wasn’t paying much attention to what was going on around me.

Then I realized the little lady next to me was having quite a struggle trying to replace a manila envelope on the top most shelf. She was obviously a peppy person, quite full of energy but way too short to do what she was trying to do. I guessed her to be no more than 4’8” tall and perhaps 85 years of age.

I was just getting ready to offer to help her reach that top shelf when she managed to wedge the envelope between some others. I smiled and said “Congratulations, that was quite a reach! I was laughing a little when I added: “I really didn’t think you could make it!”

She immediately smiled back and chuckled. “You know, stretching is what makes you grow!” I didn’t think much about that exchange until about an hour later. A wave of understanding mixed with some warm emotion washed over me. You know, she was right on target!

She wasn’t talking about being short. She didn’t expect to grow another physical inch she was expressing something much more important. STRETCHING IS WHAT MAKES US GROW. Reaching beyond our self imposed limits. Trying for that metaphorical extra inch or foot or mile.

Athletes know that. They have to believe in that second wind. They don’t stop because temporarily they can go no further. They keep on, keeping on. How else would that 4 minute mile have been broken over and over again?

If you ever observed someone trying to control their weight, there comes a time when they seem to hit a plateau. They get so far but become stuck. But if they keep applying the basic principles of weight loss or gain, if they keep the goal in mind, they eventually break through that barrier.

Metaphysicians know to attain that desired level of enlightenment they must keep meditating, reading, searching, practicing their personal awareness until the light breaks through.

What are limits really? LIMITS ARE IMAGINARY BARRIERS we have erected for ourselves or, in some cases, limits we have accepted as truth from others. Our thoughts may tell us we have gone this far but the next step is way too much.

Our closest friends and relatives mean well but may give us the idea that our personal goal is too impossible to attempt. We love these people and so we accept their erroneous ideas.

I believe that all of us can decide to accept the reality that WE ARE TRULY UNLIMITED. There are no chains that bind us unless we want them to. We are free; yes we are free, totally free in the most dynamic way we can imagine. There are no limits to what you and I can do. None at all.

Throw away any limits you may have accepted. Truly, you were born to be an “over-comer”. If you cannot go through that seeming obstacle, go around it. Find your way with confidence. Move ahead.

There is unlimited energy within you and offered to you. The universe is ready to fill your desire. Accept the reality of your own endless ability. Whatever your heart is asking of you, believe you can do it because you can!

Let me offer you a private appointment for your personal counseling session. Any life questions you may have will be answered with the help of your angels and guides. Write out all your questions, all your current challenges.

I will read for you either in my studio or by telephone. In either case, you will receive a cassette tape of your psychic reading for your later review.

Call Reverend Lois (941) 961-2783 or e-mail RevLois@gmail.com.



You and I relate to others in hundreds of different ways. We can have friends, enemies, spouses, family, lovers, bosses, employees.

Relationships come and relationships go but all of our various relationships, whether we label them good or bad, contain important messages from Spirit. ALL RELATIONSHIPS ARE SPIRIT DRIVEN LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES.

Likewise all relationships at their heart, their root, are relationships forged by Spirit. Spirit working through each of us creates unique learning opportunities from relationships.

To truly hear the message from each experience, the caveat is this: we must be willing to listen to, and search for, the deeper truths contained in each long or short encounter. The problem we sometimes find in gaining the truth from any relationship is that we have a tendency to only think of the interaction in terms of what THEY did or THEY did not do.

We need to look at the feelings and thoughts issuing from within us that these joinings brought to our attention. What belief did WE hold that caused a strong reaction, positive or negative, to come forth from deep within ourselves? Why did we act or react the way we did? Could there be something we need to clear from our consciousness?

A one-sided analysis of any situation does not reveal the learning tools that can be gained through exploring that relationship. To extract the very best lessons from any beautiful and peaceful or harsh and demanding give-and-take between individuals, we must be willing to see and understand our own part in the exchange.

The goal of our journey here on earth is an all pervasive, Spirit-revealed education. We are here to learn. To gain the greatest benefit from our lives as humans we need to stop believing that we are “going solo”. Yes, it is true that we appear to be individual in one sense but we are definitely not separate. We are all interconnected and joined in a myriad of ways.

Every act that you and I take has an effect on someone else whether we are aware of it or not. Any thought we think, any word we say, is important because it will create a ripple, a color, a sound, a feeling. As we accept and acknowledge the basic truth of this, our intent and desire become much purer, more consciously directed. We earnestly want to be an instrument of positive change!

It is important to realize that many times when we are in the midst of a relationship we do not have the ability to step back and see what the lesson may be. It can take days, months, or even years to truly gain all that is available in that “coming together” for our enlightenment. That passage of time however long it may be does not have to mean loss of the wisdom offered.

The basic lesson and understanding, the possibility for genuine advancement of our soul, is still available regardless of the amount of time that has lapsed.

Each of us should be concerned enough with our own spiritual development to take the time to extract the fundamental gains from any relationship no matter how brief that particular joining may have been. By looking deeply at the interactions produced by each of us, we can elevate our spiritual “platform”. Our inner vision becomes clearer and more acute.

Caring enough to gaze backward in an analytical way seeking that enlightenment, will help each of us to move forward with greater ease and accomplishment.

Appreciate the helpful, gracious people in your life. But particularly be grateful for every harsh and upsetting situation you have encountered. Through gratitude for all your life’s experiences you will attain measureable growth of soul. Those unpleasant times and the accompanying emotional hurts can point you toward the greatest understanding of your life path!

I wish for each of you the blessing of deeper experiences, great caring and much learning.

If I can be of service to you through a private counseling appointment, please call Reverend Lois, (479) 657-6491.



There is no question that Fear can be the most daunting of enemies. Fear can control your every move. It can completely immobilize any desired forward motion.

Fear can step in and effectively send you back into memories of past failures. It can lead you to expect only the worst. Those fears then become a self fulfilling prophecy.

When we allow ourselves to be in the grip of fear based thoughts, we hesitate to make any decision large or small. Our Spirit struggles to reach us but we do not hear.

Somehow standing in an aura of fear, we forget that this universe of ours is a loving and forgiving place if we will only allow it to be so. We forget that it is only our thinking that can fill us with sorrow, apprehension, or regret and not love.

Consider the marvelous ally we have when we call upon the Archangel Michael. He comes to us with his glowing sword to cut through all our fear and replace that fear with pure love. Call on him. He will come.

Fear arrives in so many insidious forms. Fear of loss as in the fear of losing a loved one, a job, investments, money etc. Fear of failure: I need a better education, I do not understand all of this, my attention span is way too short, I should not even start! And of course that fear of disease when every little pain could be the Big One.

The one real component in all of these fearful thoughts is an overwhelming dread of any change large or small. We can label any change good or bad but the one thing it definitely is, is inevitable! Remember that with change of any kind comes an enormous potential for personal growth.

When we are willing to embrace change as a fact of life and approach it with positive expectations instead of apprehension, we are rewarded. The truth is that this life is a learning platform. We are here to experience all of the beautiful and not so beautiful. It is through our experiences that we learn!

The great poet laureate of Unity, Emmet Fox, wrote “There is no difficulty that enough love will not conquer; no disease that enough love will not heal; no door that enough love will not open…If only you could love enough, you could be the happiest and most powerful being in the world.”

Let us begin to love our current situation. Let us begin to love ourselves with all of our flaws as well as our talents. When we love who and what we are, we allow others to love us as well.

When we can love all that is whole heartedly, we will have invited our spirit to join totally with our physical body. We will have the ability to hear the whisperings of our inner most soul and highest guardians.

May I extend my unconditional love to those of you who read this today? I know that you are powerful souls with earth and heaven changing abilities. I bless each of you and give thanks for you.

Call me if I can help you with an in depth psychic counseling session. I am pleased to offer you a reading in my studio in Bella Vista, Arkansas or over the telephone. I will also be available to you for a few of the winter months in Florida.

I am Reverend Lois (479) 657-6491. Call today for your confidential appointment.



You have talent. You have innate abilities. You have heartfelt desires. Why not begin to use these wonderful attributes and abilities with which you were born?

When I consul with my clients, often I hear words like: “Yes, that is what I would like to do, but I need more training”, “But I can’t afford to use my time that way”, “But I have to do other things”, “But, my husband (or wife) wouldn’t like it”, “But, money is too short now”, “It’s just too late”, “I’m too old”.

If any one of these reasons sounds similar to something you have told yourself, remember all of those words are nothing but excuses for not beginning. My advice to you is simple: START!

Make an effort now, today. Begin with what you have. Do not put off that one highly energized thing you arrived on the earth plain to do. You came here with purpose. Tomorrow or next year will never get here. Your power is NOW.

I have a friend who needs to be writing. Her talent is lying there quite dormant and untouched. She says she has no idea what to write. I tell her BEGIN. Write about the fact that you do not know what to write. Write about writers block. Write about your feelings. Just write and you will feel the creative energy that is you start your engine, rev up and carry you away in the perfect direction!

If you know in your heart you should be working with children and have no credentials or degree in the field, volunteer! There are many organizations you could help. They are looking for someone like you. You are needed. Use what you have and your efforts will give you the energy push, the extra thrust to go further. Ideas will come.

If you are drawn to music in any way, vocal, piano, instrument: now is the moment—Sing, Play, Compose! If it is at a casual social club, if it is at your church or just in the shower, work up your courage and start. LET YOUR SPECIAL MUSIC RING!

When you take the first step, when you make the first effort, the clouds will part and the way will open! Toss fear out the window. You can do what you were meant to do. Try it!

You can be sure that when you first make changes in your life there will be plenty of people to tell you can’t. They will say that it has been tried before or it will not work. You may be told it isn’t logical or your talent is insufficient and you “don’t know the ropes”.

It certainly would not be unusual to encounter some jealousy even from close friends just because you have the bravado to try a new path.

Please do not give in or give up. The world will present as many “naysayers” as you are willing to hear. The only words or advice you need to acknowledge are the words you heart is saying. If your personal inner feeling nature says “this is the way”, then it is! NOW is your time!

You were sent here to express the Love and the Light that are you. Your soul will support your efforts. Call on you angels, your own high self, you guides. All these energetic spirits want to help. Ask them and they will be there for you. You have gifts that are uniquely yours. Believe in them and believe in yourself.

I want to help you clarify your goals and opportunities. If you are encountering challenges or have questions on any topic, call for your private appointment. All intuitive readings are completely confidential. I will provide you with a cassette tape of your reading to be reviewed at your leisure.

Call today for your appointment. I can meet with you in my Bella Vista Arkansas studio or speak with you by telephone.

Call Reverend Lois (479)657-6491.



Is your life humming along in the direction of your choice or just moving by default? Have those methods of forward motion that used to work for you seemed to fail? Do you feel just plain stuck?

Sometimes everything that used to make you happy suddenly rings empty or without meaning. The job that you were excited about goes stale. Your friends grow in different directions and you have little in common. Even your living space lacks energy or vibrancy.

All of these signs and symptoms of distress are very positive indicators of your inner desire for a dynamic life shift. Use this momentary stagnation as a motivator. Spirit is telling you it is time to MOVE UP!

How do you begin? It is much simpler than you might imagine. Decide today to let go of worn out ideas. Admit that you need to release the old over used concepts and methods, and ask for new Spirit-filled directions.

Step out of your Past. Just let go of what was yesterday or last year or last decade. Today is your day! Now is your time!

Help is there for you in the very moment you are open and ask for it from your own guides, your teachers and angels.

You may find that it is necessary to do a much larger “house cleaning” than you ever imagined. In addition to discarding previous ideas, you may need to let go of worn out things, worn out relationships and worn out situations.

The pots, pans, clothes and other things you have carried around for years can be recycled for others. Toss those items you intended to repair and never did. Put some newness and color in your everyday living.

If your closest relationships are not working, gently release them and begin to move in different social circles.

If your employment is no longer your joy, begin to experiment, read, listen to your inner voice until you find the work that makes the hours fly and your heart sing.

It may even be that your place in this world is not where you currently live. If that is the case, feel free to make the move! Find that new location that welcomes you.

Yes, you have the right as well as the obligation to remove anyone or anything from your life that is holding you back from achieving your full potential. When you are in sync with your own highest desires, everything comes together for you. All the pieces fit!

You have a life purpose that is too important to ignore. The temporary discomfort you may experience in releasing the familiar is a small price to pay for the gains that will evolve.

Believe in yourself and your heart’s vision. Take a risk to better your life. You are definitely worth it!

My work as a psychic counselor covers the gamut of human challenges. Clients come wanting closure with a friend or relative in spirit. Some look for answers to current relationship problems. Others need answers from their guides concerning the path of their spiritual growth. No questions are off limits.

Call today for your private appointment. I can meet with you in my Bella Vista, Arkansas studio or help you by telephone. In either case, I provide you with a cassette recording of your personal reading for your later review.

All readings are completely confidential. Call Reverend Lois, (479)657-6491.



Your dreams are important. Your heartfelt desires deserve fulfillment. Your joyous and abundant living is your birthright. Why then do so many of us put off until tomorrow those actions or adventures that call to us so vibrantly? Why do we try to ignore the promptings of our heart and soul?

Have you ever heard someone say “I’ll try that when the children are grown”? How about “As soon as I get into shape, I’ll give that one a go”? Here is a typical one: “Maybe if I make more money”? Or “As soon as I get the promotion or a better offer”? “No, not today, maybe next year. My parents need me here.”

If you typically ignore your personal need to try something new and grow, if it has become your habit to deny yourself, decide to STOP IT. When you put off until tomorrow what your soul would have you do today, you cut off your spiritual and physical expansion. Remember that your purpose in being here on earth is for EXPERIENCE, for LEARNING!

When you allow yourself more experiences, more diversity, you are not only being a blessing to yourself, but you become a blessing to others. The broader your experiences, the more inspiration and help you can be to the other people you touch.

My dear husband Jim has been in spirit for many years. I do not think he would mind if I told you one of his experiences which he put off far too long. One of his friends had spent part of his military service in Australia. His friend always spoke of how truly wonderful the people and the country were!

My Jim was always saying “I want to visit Australia before I die.” Through the years I must have offered a dozen different dates and ways that we could go together to explore Australia.

His responses were always pretty much the same: “No, that trip isn’t quite long enough. We don’t have the money now. The weather won’t be good then. I should wait until…. But I want to visit Australia before I die.”

I became so disgusted with his putting the trip off until some unknown time that I finally just said, “If you will just tell me when you intend to die, we can get this scheduled!” Yes, it was awfully mean on my part.

By this time in my story you probably have guessed that he never did get to make his trip to Australia.

Do not do the same thing to your most cherished desires. Do not put off the fulfillment of your heart’s wishes. Start making your plan today.

Whether your special desire is for a certain trip, an important vision quest, starting a business of your own, initiating a support group or any kind of goal whatsoever that captures your heart and your mind, begin right now. Do not put off your life.

Your life path is of great importance. Be steadfast, be enthused. Live in joy and gratitude. You are building your roadway to your unique destination one brick at a time and each bit of pavement matters.

I believe you can accomplish anything that you desire, if only you will begin now. Embrace your life fully and the rewards will be great.

I am Reverend Lois Cheney. I look forward to helping you with any of your life’s challenges or goals. Your concerns can be addressed in “trance” with the help of your guides, masters, teachers and angels.

If your need is to contact a loved one in spirit be assured that also can be done. Health issues, relationship questions, nothing is “off limits”.

Call for your private appointment today. We can meet in my studio in Bella Vista, Arkansas or by telephone. You will receive a cassette recording of your personal counseling session for your later review. All sessions are completely confidential.

Yes, you! You are THE MASTER CREATOR of your life’s experience. You are the originator, designer, builder and architect of every situation that confronts you on your life’s path today.

In every moment of your life the dynamic energy of your closely held core beliefs, often repeated words, thoughts and emotions are manifesting your experiences. Know that you have that much power!

Nothing you are currently experiencing is by chance. Nothing you have experienced in the past was by chance.

When you believe that this is a friendly, generous universe, you experience friendliness and generosity. You prosper in all the areas of your life.

The content of your continually held thoughts and often repeated words will manifest the direction of your life path. Where your attention goes, your energy flows. Under your own guidance, creation happens.

When you believe that life on earth is hard and difficult, you experience life in just that way. Every day is a struggle.

The words that you speak, the thoughts that you think, become your reality. Your life always will bear evidence to your beliefs.

Once you accept responsibility for what you are experiencing, it becomes easier to make positive changes. It becomes obvious that you can build a better life for yourself.

One of the most potentially revealing places to start is with the analysis of your core beliefs. What are they? Do they ring positive and loving, life affirming or fearful and negative? Are they genuinely your beliefs or did you simply accept them as truth from family or friends?

If you do not like what you see in your belief system, begin to rethink and redesign. If your beliefs do not create happiness, health and abundance, could you construct a different belief system for yourself?

This is not a self blaming exercise. This is a “practice makes perfect” effort to improve what you bring into your life. Be kind to yourself. In your quiet times praise yourself when you make progress in your pronouncements, your assessments of life.

Watching your thoughts and words does require the desire and intention to make positive adjustments. Listen to yourself when you are speaking just to yourself or to others. Are you speaking words of health? Are you speaking words of hope and prosperous possibilities?

Anyone can “bring down” a room full of people with dire predictions or fearful forecasts. Instead decide today to practice being the sunshine wherever you go! It is good for you and good for anyone you touch.

I believe in you. I believe that you have the talent, the power and the desire for your very best life now. Get the upper hand with your problems by using them as superior motivators for personal change. Reconstruct whatever causes you any discomfort.

You can do it! You are a divinely designed, unique original!

I would like to meet with you in my personal studio in Bella Vista, Arkansas. If you are some distance away, I can also arrange a phone conference for you. Call me for psychic counseling or a spirit-trance contact with your guides or departed loved ones. All sessions are completely confidential.

Call for your private appointment. I am Reverend Lois, (479) 657-6491.



Throughout your day you make various decisions. You move forward, take an action, on one task and discard or ignore another. Some of your decisions are minor and of little importance. It seems obvious for instance that little impact comes from choosing one breakfast cereal over another.

On the other hand certain types of decisions can have a more life altering affect. It is those decisions that change the course of your personal history that I wish to address today.

For example, it could be that you feel the need to move out of or drop a personal relationship.

It is possible that another rather “foreign” geographic location seems to be calling you.

Perhaps a major employment change is being offered away from your current comfort zone.

Larger, deeper positive choices of that kind can open up your life path; give you a greater view of growth-filled possibilities. Unfortunately poor or negative choices can detour your goals, or lead to a number of dead ends.

Those major choices that you make determine how engaged you will be with your own physical and spiritual progress. In fact some decisions have so great an impact that they can determine the course of the rest of your life.

I do not say these things to put you on guard or to frighten you, but rather to offer you another way of making decisions.

This final extra or additional method is to be used only when you have done all the usual homework regarding a particular challenge. It is to be used only when you have looked at the facts, consulted with your spirit guides, masters, and high self. Then is the time to use one more measure!

Let me preface this explanation of the method by saying that I believe strongly in LOVE’S WISDOM. When there are several choices facing me, I choose the way dictated by Love. Love always offers the highest and best to me and the highest and best to any others who may be affected by my decision.

Here then is the HEART SCALE for your use: Close your eyes. Think, feel or imagine that directly in front of you is your personal Heart Scale. If it helps, you can color it pink, gold or any loving color that appeals to you.

When you have that vision firmly in place, imagine further that the digital scale numbers read from 1 to 10. Ten is the highest and most positive.

Now, drop your decision on that scale and see what number IMMEDIATELY flashes on the scale. If you take more than 2 seconds to read the number, you have left your heart decision and moved, or deferred to, your mind or rational thinking decision.

This is a very accurate measure of how your heart and love feel about any particular decision as long as you make an immediate reading of the number. If you cannot succeed with the quick reading the first time, set the technique aside for awhile and try again.

One of the reasons for using the Heart Scale is to override our human tendency to lie to ourselves about some issues. This tendency comes into play when we feel acknowledging our own truth will lead us to making big and sometimes scary changes.

Many times we tend to try to avoid large shifts in our beliefs. We feel we need to be “right” rather than accept and actively pursue what is actually good for us.

I hope you will try this technique. Have fun with it. Make it joyful because YOUR HEART WANTS TO BE JOYFUL!

I would like to help you with any of your special questions and challenges. I know that each one of you follows a unique path. Your personal counseling session is individually tailored to your needs and heart’s desires. Call when the moment is right for you and I will schedule your private reading.

All readings are completely confidential. I can channel your guides and masters in my study in Bella Vista, Arkansas or work with you by telephone. I always provide a cassette recording for you to review at your leisure.
