If you are here, you have probably lost someone, and you have questions you can't ask them anymore. A medium reading, a sitting, is a quiet stretch of time set aside for exactly that. This page will tell you what one is like with us, how to get ready, and what you can and cannot expect, so you come to it with your eyes open.
What a sitting is
A medium works differently from a psychic. A psychic reads your situation: the person, the decision, the road ahead. A medium listens for someone who has passed and tries to bring through what they have to say.
Our mediums are part of the same small circle as every advisor here. Each of them auditioned with live readings before joining, and most applicants never make it. When you book and tell us it's about someone you've lost, we route you to a medium, not a general advisor.
On video, a sitting feels close to sitting across from them in a room. They see you, you see them, and the silences are allowed to be silences.
What to expect
Your medium opens gently. They won't ask you to tell them everything; most will ask you to say very little at first. They'll describe what they're getting: a presence, an age, a manner, a detail that may or may not mean anything to you yet. Your job in those first minutes is simply to say yes, no, or I'm not sure.
Details tend to come as small things. A nickname. A habit. Something about the kitchen. Something they always said. A medium can't choose what comes through, and the small things are often what makes it real.
If it isn't landing, say so. A good medium would rather be told than guess, and sometimes the sitting shifts to someone you didn't expect.
Later in the sitting there's usually room for your questions. Not every question gets an answer, and the answer isn't always in words. Sometimes it's a feeling in the room that both of you notice.
Bring tissues. Most people need them, and there's no hurry.
How to prepare
You don't have to do much, but a few things help.
Decide who you're hoping to hear from, and hold them lightly. Mediums often say the person who comes through is the one who needs to, which isn't always the one you had in mind.
Have a question or two in your heart, but don't script the sitting. "Are you all right" and "did you know" are the two most people bring, and they're enough.
Find a private, quiet place where you can cry if you need to. Turn your camera on. Have water nearby.
Give yourself some time afterward. Don't book a sitting on the way to something else.
What a sitting can and cannot promise
We want to be honest about this because it matters more here than anywhere.
No medium can promise that a specific person will come through. No medium can promise particular messages, or answers to particular questions. Anyone who guarantees that is not being straight with you. We don't guarantee results, and we'd rather you know that before you book than be disappointed after.
What we do guarantee is the sitting itself: a professional reading, delivered with insight and clarity, by an honest, gifted, hand-vetted medium, with real value to you. That is the CWP Guarantee. If your sitting didn't leave you clearer, or didn't feel real, tell us within 24 hours and we rebook you free with a different medium or refund every penny to your card.
A sitting is also not grief counseling, and not a replacement for it. Many people find a sitting comforting alongside the rest of what they're doing to get through. It's a visit, not a cure, and it's fine to want it anyway.
Why we recommend The Deep Dive
Every reading here is one flat price, shown before you pay: The Question at $39 for 5 to 10 minutes, The Reading at $75 for 15 to 20 minutes, The Deep Dive at $135 for 30 to 40 minutes, and The Hour at $185 for 60 minutes.
For a sitting, we recommend The Deep Dive.
Mediumship needs time to settle. The first minutes are often the medium finding their footing with who has come. The middle is where the details and the messages arrive. The end is for your questions and for saying what you need to say. Trying to do all of that in ten minutes is unkind to everyone in the room, including the person who came through.
If you've had sittings before and know what you're looking for, The Reading can work. If it's your first, or it's been a long time, give it the room. Evenings run a few dollars more and late nights a little more; every price is on the calendar before you choose. If there's more to say when your time is up, add time with one tap, price shown first. Nothing runs on its own, and nothing ends abruptly mid-sentence.
Your medium, next time
Your medium remembers you. If you come back, ask for them by name and the calendar shows their availability. They'll remember who came through, what was said, and what you were left holding. Second sittings with the same medium often go deeper, because the first work is already done.
The guarantee, and the rest
You pay as a guest, no account. Your number is never shared with anyone, including your medium, and your card statement stays discreet.
Choose Now and you're usually connected within 15 minutes, or pick a time on the calendar that gives you space around it. If you'd rather not be on a live call, the same mediums make taped video readings on their own time, from $29, though for a sitting we'd gently suggest live.
Whoever you're missing, you don't have to carry the question alone tonight.
