About Kimberly Lakein
As a trained evidential medium, my mission is to provide messages of healing from your loved ones on the other side and confirmation that life continues after we leave this physical plane. I am committed to serving the world of Spirit and am here to help you in the best way I can, for the highest good of all. I am passionate about helping people on both sides of the veil and believe that mediumship is a sacred calling not meant to be taken lightly. I have high ethical standards and am dedicated to studying and developing my mediumship as a lifelong endeavor. I offer lots of validation so that you know which loved ones of yours I am communicating with, and I strive to deliver messages in the most accurate and healing way.
For my entire life, for as long as I can remember, (30+ years) I have sensed and been in communication with the other side. As a child, my mediumistic abilities frightened me and I attempted to block them for years, turning to drugs and alcohol to try to dial down the knob on my sensitivity. I have now been sober for thirteen years. Sobriety catapulted me back onto the spiritual path and led me to answer my soul’s calling to serve as a translator of spirit and offer mediumship sessions professionally.
For the last year, I worked as a grief therapist in training and have a master’s of counseling psychology degree with an emphasis on depth psychology program from Pacifica Graduate Institute. I wrote my thesis on the healing potential of mediumship as an adjunct to grief therapy. I am passionate about helping people to develop their innate mediumistic abilities to nurture the bonds with their deceased loved ones and receive spirit communication first-hand. 1:1 and group mentorship sessions & mediumship sessions are available here.
I am passionate about living a healthy lifestyle, am vegan, queer, and love world travel, nature, hiking, trail running, swimming, yoga, meditation, writing, reading, belly dancing, my two kittens, and most importantly, my adventure partners—my husband, and our sweet toddler.
