General FAQ
Does James schedule private appointments?

Due to overwhelming requests, I am no longer able to schedule private appointments. I do understand the need for some to experience personal counseling, so I have posted a list of reputable Practitioners from around the world on the Resources page of this web site. Many of these practitioners do schedule phone readings.

Can James do readings by telephone, email or by mail?

No, I do not share private readings by email, postal mail, through my message board, or by telephone. Because I do understand the need for some to experience personal counseling, I have posted a list of reputable Practitioners from around the world on the Resources page of this web site. Many of these practitioners do schedule phone readings.

Since James is not available to do readings, can he make referrals?

To assist those who wish personal spiritual counseling, in the Practitioners and Links areas on my Resources page I have listed referrals of reputable healers, mediums, psychics and spiritual centers. There are many other gifted practitioners throughout the country. I am not, however, familiar with the work of practitioners from every state or country.

If you are in need of spiritual counseling I recommend checking your local telephone directory or use an internet search engine under religion or spiritualism to locate a spiritual center, new age bookstore or spiritualist church in your area.

Meanwhile, there are a number of books that I recommend that are excellent sources of spiritual understanding and comfort. These books are referenced on my Reading List page.

I sent an email to the Web Administrator. Why have I not received a reply?

My Web Site Administrator receives hundreds of emails daily. To help keep down the volume of emails, information has been shared on my FAQ page for those questions most commonly asked. If you sent an email wanting information or asking a question whose answer appears on the FAQ page, you will not receive a reply. This allows us to answer emails in a more timely manner.

If you sent an email requesting information that does not appear on the FAQ page and you have not received a reply, please be patient. Because of the high volume of emails it takes my Web Site Administrator some time to answer.
