What happens when spiritual work overlaps with mental health? How can we discern what is a spiritual experience from possible psychological crisis?

In Part 3 of Mallorie’s conversation with Jess, psychic medium and hypnotherapist, the focus turns to discernment and safety within clinical and spiritual spaces. Jess shares how she evaluates whether a client is a good fit for hypnotherapy, and why mental health contraindications must always be considered when exploring altered states or intuitive work.

Together, Mallorie and Jess unpack:

• The ethical responsibilities of spiritual practitioners

• Key differences between spirit communication and psychosis

• Experiences navigating a loved one’s mental health challenges

• Why boundaries, consent, and spiritual autonomy are essential

• How to manage “negative energy” without fear, and how to ask for higher help

This conversation offers a grounded reminder that discernment is sacred, and that spiritual empowerment always includes caring for our mind, body, and spirit.
