The sensations are greater, the smells more intense and the landscape is so close it seems to reach out and embrace you in its majesty and wonder.

your personal limitations.” - Craig Ripley

As a little girl Cathy was aware of her unique ability. In later life, Cathy practiced as a Doctor of Chiropractic medicine and was keenly aware of her connection to those that lived in Spirit. 

Cathy resides in Norfolk Massachusetts and is now a full-time professional Medium. She offers one on one private sessions, family / friend sessions, as well as small and large group gallery sessions.
