Over the ages, one common denominator of all cultures, civilizations and races were the presence of individuals that claim to be able to communicate with beings from other dimensions. They were known as witches, prophets, wizards, seers and many other names and they were often either revered or feared. To this day paranormal psychology is a common practice and there are numerous individuals claiming special paranormal gifts. When seeing a psychic medium San Diego citizens try to obtain a special insight into their own lives.

The entire issue of paranormal psychology is a hotbed of controversy. Critics say that there is no such thing as beings existing in other dimensions. They accuse mediums of being fraudsters intent on conning ordinary but gullible people in paying large sums for their services. Critics reckon that paranormal psychology is nothing but a sick perversion of very basic and ordinary psychological principles that are twisted to convince people that the practitioner has special gifts.

Critics also slam paranormal practitioners for leading vulnerable people to act on potentially harmful advice. Many clients so firmly believe in the abilities of their mediums that they will not make any decisions before consulting a practitioner. If things go wrong, as the all too often do, the practitioner will simply accuse the client of misinterpreting the advice they were given or failing to follow the instructions correctly.

Mediums and their supporters are quick to point out that there have been numerous instances where the police have asked them to use their special talents to help them solve crimes. There have been many successes and they have received wide publicity. The legitimacy of practitioners are further underwritten and strengthened by the fact that many leaders, artists and other celebrities are open about the fact that they often consult their mediums.

Paranormal practitioners counter the arguments of their critics by saying that they are being misunderstood. They do not claim special powers such as the ability to read mind, to foretell the future or to directly influence the outcome of events. They do not curse people and they do not have the ability to influence the way people think. In fact, the only ability that they claim is the ability to communicate with entities that live in other realms or planes of existence.

Many practitioners say that they did not choose their calling but that they were chosen for a specific task. They say that when one or more beings from other dimension task them to be their communication channel with people in this dimension, they have no choice in the matter. Their job, therefore, is simply to receive messages and to make sure that they reach the intended target audience.

It is important that believers in paranormal psychology understand and accept the fact that this is not a regulated industry. Practitioners are not answerable to any formal body and they do not need a license or a permit in order to offer their services. Unhappy or disillusioned clients have no channels through which they can lay complaints.

There can be no doubt that the popularity of paranormal psychology is still on the rise. Modern life is complex and complicated. Many people feel that they need help in making important decisions and they firmly believe that the advice given to them by practitioners gives them an edge.
