Hello

Welcome to my site. You have either found me by luck or design, but you are here for a reason. You may be here because you're looking for answers to a particular issue that you have within your life & feel that a psychic and/or therapist can help you at this stage of your life.

An Interview with Pam, and Judith at The Spirit of Tarot.

I have practiced as a clairvoyant, channel & healer since 1987, conducting 1000's of readings during that time, & as a therapist. I'm an experienced counsellor & enjoy helping others via my psychic & therapeutic nature, so maybe I can help you?

Although I enjoyed psychic & spirit experiences from a very young age, my conscious psychic development started when I was 19, with Tarot, at that time, as my chosen tool.

I started to work professionally as a psychic in my 20’s, not using Tarot but as a direct clairvoyant in a clairvoyant counselling role, & it was at this time that I started to study hypnotherapy. I opened my own new age shop called Mystic Monkey in my hometown. During this time, I also started to work as a spiritual healer & started to help others with their own psychic development. The name Mystic Monkey was given to the shop as I was born in the year of the monkey, & the shop was also opened in the year of the monkey. Furthermore, the monkey mind is relevant in meditation terms, as is the mind, which is always active, searching, & the mystic, the search for the unknown. After the shop closed, I decided to focus on hypnoanalysis but kept the spiritual aspect by my side.

I am a fully trained therapist, trained in hypnotherapy & hypnoanalysis, & I am without a doubt a self-taught hypnotherapist, although I do hold a diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy. I have received formal training from Bright Nature Training, Regression & Hypno-analysis as well as Neuro-Linguistic Programming.

2014 saw a break from work due to breast cancer & treatment. During this time, I have taken a step back from being a hypnotherapist & returned to my psychic & spiritual roots. So now, full circle, I am once again practicing as a psychic and clairvoyant therapist, with the added benefit of many new therapeutic skills. This new website is a replacement for my two old sites, Spiritual Travellers & Holistic Paths/Pam Richards Hypnotherapy.

I currently live in Portugal, having left the UK, & I only work online due to this via email readings. You can find details of my book Understanding Tarot on this website as well.

I just recently purchased Understanding Tarot. I wish I had this book when I began learning Tarot a few years back. Simply fabulous. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is into Tarot. It is the best book I have found on learning and understanding Tarot. The description of the cards along with the details and summaries of what the cards represent are amazing!!
