An Open Letter to 
People on the Psychic Path:
 With all the media exposure from books, magazines, films and television's "phone a psychic," people who wish to consult a psychic may not be sure which way to turn. As a psychic with more than 30 years of experience, I offer these comments that may help you to find the right person for your needs.

There is a broadly accepted 
code of integrity and responsibility 
that you should expect from a psychic.
The psychic should have a regular name - not reverent doctor or madam or an exotic one-word name you've never heard before. Psychics are real people who live among you. They have driver's licenses and library cards- and credit cards, too. 
The psychic should have a permanent address—tents don't count! 
Beware of roadside signs, mailers and unsolicited email messages saying you have been selected to receive a reading.
TV-touted phone-in psychics can be a terrible rip-off. Some people spend  a lot of money on calls to them, without realizing how quickly the charges add up. Sometimes the results of these calls are disastrous as the phone psychic offers irresponsible advice or information without counseling.  A phone consultation should be for a pre-determined length of time, at a predetermined price.
You may feel differently but I personally find esoteric trappings such as incense, beads, flowing robes and turbans a turn-off. True paranormal talent needs no window dressing. You should feel comfortable and safe with the psychic. 
What you should ask for—and get!
You should feel free to ask for references. Rather than call or consult an unknown, try to find someone reputable and established, who can offer references from other psychics, the media and referrals from satisfied clients. You wouldn't do anything less if you were seeking a counselor, therapist or financial advisor.
You should feel free (and be encouraged to) tape record, take notes or have a witness with you. The crooks and scams don't want you to have a record of their readings, to have a witness or listener.
Know exactly what the service is and what it will cost you, whether it's by the hour, half hour or extended session. There should be no additional fees for special prayers, sacred candles, etc.
This above all: 
if you're told there is a "curse on you" that the psychic can remove—walk out! You're dealing with a phony.
