What to Expect in a Mediumship Session

For many people, the thought of having a mediumship session brings both curiosity and a little uncertainty. You may be wondering what the experience will be like, how it works, and what you might receive. Mediumship is deeply personal and often profoundly healing, and while no two sessions are ever the same, there are some common things you can expect. 

Creating a Safe and Supportive Space 

Every session begins with setting the intention for connection, healing, and guidance. My role as a medium is to create a safe, supportive environment where you feel comfortable and open to whatever messages may come through. You don’t need to prepare or provide me with details in advance—spirit brings forward what needs to be shared in that moment. 

How Spirit Communication Works 

Mediumship is the art of connecting with loved ones who have passed into spirit. During a session, I act as the bridge between you and them, relaying messages, impressions, and evidence that confirm their continued presence.  These validations may include: 

• Names or initials 

• Personality traits 

• Memories, habits, or favorite sayings 

• Significant dates or life events 

These details are spirit’s way of letting you know they are present, not only during your session, but during your life on the physical plane.    

What You May Experience 

Mediumship is unique to each person. Some clients feel a sense of peace, others experience emotional release, and many describe it as deeply comforting to know their loved ones are still connected with them. Sessions often bring: 

• Reassurance that loved ones are safe and at peace 

• Messages of love and support for your life today 

• Healing from unresolved grief or unanswered questions 

It’s normal to feel emotional, and that’s completely okay—mediumship is about love and healing, not performance or proof. 

The Flow of a Session 

Most sessions last about 30–45 minutes, though I don’t rush the process. If a little extra time is needed, we allow for it.  

Spirit leads the way, bringing forward the messages that matter most in that moment. 

You don’t need to do anything special during the session—just come with an open heart. Sometimes the person you most want to hear from steps forward, and sometimes others in spirit choose to come through. Trust that whoever arrives has something meaningful to share. 

After the Session 

It’s a good idea to give yourself some quiet time afterward. Reflect, write down what resonated, and notice how the messages continue to unfold in your life. Many people find new layers of meaning in the days and weeks following. 

Final Thoughts 

A mediumship session is a chance to experience connection, comfort, and healing. While each experience is unique, you can expect it to be heartfelt, respectful, and guided by love.
