Allison was born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Now she resides in New York City with thousands of clients world wide. Below she shares with us some interesting things about herself. The most impressive things about Allison is how she learned to read stones. Part of Allison’s training was to sit blindfolded in front of mud-filled buckets.  The buckets each had different stones in them.  In order to pass her tests, she had to be able to dip her hands into the muddy water and identify each stone just by its vibration.

Q: How long have you been a psychic?
A: As far back as I can remember – probably 4 years old. I would "know" things before they were going to happen but was unable to articulate them because I was so young.

Q: What was your religious background growing up?
A: Christian, Episcopalian to be exact. I went to Sunday School as a small child but did not practice organized religion after that. I attended Catholic School and Friends School (Quaker) for middle school but had no attachment to one particular religion.

Q: How did your family feel about what you do?
A: They called me "crazy" as a child because I would "know" things or "say" things out of nowhere, and of course being "predictions" (taking anywhere from 3 months to 3 years to come to fruition) they sounded totally unbelievable. I soon learned to keep my "predictions" to myself but also began to doubt myself and my reality. Ultimately I shut the "knowing" off in my mid-teens, but they began to bubble over again throughout my 20′s …causing me to reconnect with the Psychic part of me again in my early 30′s. I began studying alternative healing (Reiki, Rocks and other Energy work) in my late teens as a form of self discovery and self help (trying to figure out what was "wrong" with me re: my psychic predictions) and I continue to study, as I find it a great tool for Personal Growth and Spiritual Transformation.

Q: How does your family currently feel about what you do?
A: Although my family members no longer call me "crazy" they continue to dismiss what I do as a viable career and take no interest in what I do whatsoever. They have never attended any of my events, listened to my radio shows or viewed my videos. Ironically enough, my Mother is a gifted Psychic and amazing Reiki practitioner, although she believes that it should be minimized as a "hobby", and should not be practiced professionally.
However, I LOVE what I do, and view the Psychic and Healing Realm with the utmost reverence and respect. I get to utilize the gifts that God gave me that I have previously tried to minimize all of my life, so I have had the opportunity to become who I really am – my true Authentic Self.
I have been given the opportunity to utilize that gift to help others find their missing pieces within, get closure with loved ones who have passed away, make peace with tragic events in their past, undercover their own unique personal gifts, go for what they want in life (love, relationships, career, etc.) and become whole functioning beings who are happy and healed. I know that I am NOT the person who makes all of that happen, but I am honored to be able to do my part by delivering messages from Spirit to provide people with the tools/information/guidance they need in order to help themselves.

Q: Name any obstacles you’ve had in the past?
A: Most people are skeptical when it comes to Psychics and Healers and the fact that I "read rocks" makes it all the more difficult to make that connection with the Skeptics of the world. However once the folks connect with the stones, feel their actual energy combined with the truthful, evidential information that I deliver from the Stones and Spirit they usually start to "melt" and approach the reading or healing with an open mind. These type of sessions usually turn out to be the most rewarding and also create very loyal clients.

Q: What is the most profound experience you have had as a psychic or healer?
A: Each and every day I have a profound experience with clients. I help them connect to Spirit through a Psychic "Rock Reading" or Healing session, and find the missing pieces, the answers, the tools they need to heal and become a whole and happy person.
If I had to choose one particular instance I would say that it was a woman who worked in nursing home who kept smelling a "sweet smell", almost like sugar every time someone was going to pass away. She was terrified of that smell, and of the overwhelming feeling of death she experienced hours before the person passed away. I was able to help her through a Psychic Rock Reading by connecting her to some of the Spirits who had pass over. She was able to communicate with them, and realized that death was not a scary or frightful experience and they instructed her on how she could help others who were about to pass away. She learned through that Psychic reading that by just laying her hands on the people who were about to pass that she brought great comfort to them. Several of the Spirits who were already on the other side mentioned a particular song that she sang to them as they transitioned out of their body into Spirit form. Through that Psychic Rock Reading, we were also able to identify this woman’s healing gifts and she went on to become a Reiki Master. She is still working in that nursing home today and when she smells that sweet smell, she immediately goes to that person’s side, holds their hand and administers healing Reiki energy, sings her song, and helps them transition to the other side without fear and with much peace. I consider it to be a great honor to have been able to read for that woman, and help her help so many other people in a time when they needed it most.

Q: What are some of your gifts?
A: Some of my most prominent and most used gift are: Psychic, Medium, Healer, Direct Medium to Ancient Spirit Guides, Past Live Channeler, Reiki Master, Crystal Reiki Master and Atlantean Reiki Master.
I combine both Psychic/Medium work with Healing work to align the physical body & subtle bodies with Spirit.  This enables the individual to integrate the Psychic messages they receive from Spirit with their own body, mind and soul thus creating a multi-dimensional healing experience.

Q: What is the most interesting thing about you besides being a psychic medium?
A: That’s easy. My connection to Mother Earth and All Things Stone! I live in a house that has over 10,000 stones. My studio, The Rock Room in NYC, is chock full of stone (floor to ceiling) even the bathroom is made of stone. I sleep with stones under my pillow and always have my faithful 13 pound Black Obsidian at the foot of my bed.
I am also a Master Healer, a Reiki Grandmaster, Crystal Reiki Master, Atlantean Reki Master and High Priestess of Stone to be exact. I have a school called The Rock Girl Sacred Stone School where I teach people how to connect and communicate with stones and incorporate them into their daily lives for happiness and healing.
Last, but not least I am an avid animal rescuer and have many animals of my own (most of them special needs)  and I am a fierce protector of trees. It is my belief that Life is a wondrous journey of living, loving, learning and spiritual evolution and I am fiercely committed to honoring the Divine that dwells within us all.

Q: What’s your ultimate goal in life?
A: My ultimate goal is to help people find their Spiritual Warrior Within, and to take the "’t" out of the phrase "I Can’t" and turn that into "I Can".
