Kate Bishop, Clairvoyant "I grew up in Oklahoma and was educated at Reed College and Yale University. For most of my adult life I have made my living by creating festive wearable art. My goal is to make a person look in the mirror and see how beautiful she is, to build a bridge from our usual self-critical perceptions to celebration of our innate beauty. My gift of clairvoyance guides me in this work. At the Bisbee Wellness clinic, I do the same work without the fashion props. I am a clairvoyant medium, which means I receive and transmit signals from beyond the physical plane. Often my work involves helping people with transitions. If you come away from a reading with an enhanced recognition of your gifts and talents, and greater confidence in your ability to manage your life, set boundaries, or choose a direction, then my work is successful." Kate is also a member of the Reiki team at the St. Andrew's Children's Clinic in Nogales, Arizona where she provides rare insights into the lives of children who cannot communicate through speech.
