You have the Power!

November 9, 2016 by @candesscampbell

You have power over your mind – not outside events.

Realize this, and you will find strength.

 Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

Being healthy, feeling peaceful and calm, and manifesting abundance are all related to being grounded and centered in your life. As an intuitive reader what I see the most in clients, is they are not grounded and not in present time.

It’s helpful for the body to have a sense of feeling grounded. You can do this by closing your eyes, taking a deep breath and imagining a grounding cord coming from the base of your spine below the tailbone.  This grounding cord can be like a waterfall, a beam of light or a tree trunk.  The grounding cord goes down through the chair, floor, and down into the fiery center of Mother Earth.

Your body feels safe when you are grounded. You can release energy, tension, fear, and anxiety down the grounding cord which helps to prevent stress and in turn may prevent illness.  Grounding is a self- healing tool. You and more able to manifest when your are grounded and in present time.

Is Trump a Sex Addict?

October 12, 2016 by @candesscampbell

However you lean politically, the media is clearly bringing to the surface an issue that affects a large population in our country – Sex Addiction!

CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and others are all playing over and over the Access Hollywood video by Billy Bush where Trump showed his cards in how he thinks about and treats women.

With the accessibility of stimulation through the Internet and mobile phones, sexual addiction has come to the forefront. Celebrities behaviors are also being recorded and shared in public. In my private practice as a mental health and addictions counselor, more and more clients are showing up who need help from this addiction. Whether it be prostitution, pornography or chronic masturbation, it can wreak havoc in their lives and the lives of those they love. In response to this, the treatment community has begun to use sexual addiction assessments along with alcohol and drug assessments.

Working as a chemical dependency counselor at a Federal prison camp in the mid-1990s, during the “war on drugs,” we began assessing for childhood sexual abuse and past sexual abuse. Nearly all of the female clients had been sexually abused. Some of the men said yes, but I suspect even with the promise of confidentially, they did not admit to this. Many who have been abused don’t remember, but issues show up later in their lives in relationship.

Most of my clients who were diagnosed as sex addicts had been women and men who had a history of past sexual abuse and at some level attempted to find balance and healing, but instead found themselves in relationships where they became sexually addicted and often exploited. Some went on to be sex offenders. One example is a past client I counseled. He had been abused by his older brother and then went on to sexually abuse his nephew.

A leader in the field of Sexual Addition treatment is Douglas Weiss, PhD. This article summarizes the 6 Types of Sexual Addicts, a model he developed, which became the standard used to certify Sexual Recovery Therapists by the American Association for Sex Addiction Therapy.

[clickToTweet tweet=”‘In a normal situation, a person is having sex inside a relationship context.'” quote=”Weiss explains, “in a normal situation, a person is having sex inside a relationship context. He/she is gluing to the person, the eyes, and the soul of the person he/she is being sexual with.” This is different than having the object of sexual fulfillment being images that do not respond. Addiction creates lack of control, shame, and self-loathing and destroys relationships. “]

Six Types of Sexual Addicts

1. Biological Sexual Addict

Weiss states this is the most common sex addict. Basically the behavior is “ring the bell, feed the dog, ring the bell, feed the dog” like Pavlov’s conditioning. What happens is during orgasm; the endorphins that are released create an attachment to what is happening at the time. So whether this is a real or imaged person, the chemical release in the brain creates a bond. These endorphins, “almost four times as strong as morphine,” are the highest chemical reward the brain can come by, legally. Therefore, “your brain literally glues to, hungers for, craves, and wants to repeat that activity again.”

Weiss states that the Biological Sex Addict probably represents less than 15% of all sexual addicts, and is the baseline of all the sexual addictions. Most also have components of the other five types.

In my own counseling practice, many of my female clients who have a history of sexual abuse fall for his type of addict. They become the sexual object for them.

2. Psychological Sexual Addict

This person is often the one who has experienced emotional or physical abuse in his life. Due to the lack of love, touch, or security, as a child he sets up a fantasy life. This sense of neglect can carry on into adulthood and when his needs are not met at home, he creates a fantasy world where he feels adored, worshiped, and desired. This is the man who fantasizes he is the best, the biggest, the greatest, etc. If he has been dominated in his life he may fantasize as being the one who is dominating.

In his psychological fantasy, he feels sexually powerful, loved and wanted. In his imagination, he doesn’t have to deal with real women who may say no, ask him for commitment, ask for help with the housework or ask for emotional intimacy. Once this fantasy is paired with the powerful chemical endorphins, he is hooked.

3. Spiritual Based Sexual Addict

Similar to the psychological sexual addict, this addict is looking for a connection. There is a strong desire for a spiritual connection. They look to find it within their sexual addiction. In this case, once they have a spiritual experience through a religious encounter, an experience with Jesus or another guide or Guru, the sexual addiction stops. “Their sexual addiction just plain stops, because that’s where the origin of the ache or the need was for the individual.” These people rarely get help within the clinical community.

4. Trauma Based Sexual Addict

The trauma based sexual addict is the client I have most experience with. In this case, he or she has experienced sexual trauma, most likely as a child or adolescent. These clients go on to mirror their trauma in their relationships. For example a young girl who was sexually abused by an older uncle may end up in relationship after relationship with older men. She may despise herself for this, but continue the behavior and recreate the shame. A woman who has been physically abused in conjunction with a sexual trauma may act out being abused in the sexual act in order to be satisfied and make attempt after attempt to find the right partner, shaming herself all the way. She becomes a sexual addict that is also the sexual object of another addict.

5. Intimacy Anorexic

Although a separate issue from sexual addiction, Weiss states intimacy anorexia affects around 29% of sex addicts. Generally, the anorexic behavior is related to “sex addiction, sexual trauma, neglect in the family and cross gender attachment disorder.” There also may be related to other co-occurring disorders. Weiss describes intimacy anorexia as when a “spouse intentionally withholds emotional, spiritual and sexual intimacy.” They may control through silence, anger, or withholding money. They blame their spouse, withhold love, tend to be critical, and are unwilling to talk about their feelings. This is a difficult situation for the addict because as they are working on their own recovery, whether it be abstaining from prostitutes, masturbation, or pornography, they also need to learn to move toward their spouse or partner and re-create a healthy relationship. They have to learn to feel and communicate their feelings.

6. Mood Disorder

Sexual addicts who also have a mood disorder are another type of sex addict. Weiss shared about clients who were bipolar or had cyclothymic disorder and were medicating the imbalance neurologically through the ejaculation response. Until the medication was adjusted properly, they continued to relapse.

When you hear the term sexual addict, it may conjure up an image of someone being sexual, playful and having fun. The truth is the very opposite. Although the sexual thoughts and behavior may start that way, as in any addiction, the person loses control and their life spirals downward. Sexual addicts generally have low self-esteem and believe no one will love them as they are. They lack emotional intimacy and are continually pre-occupied with sex and sexual fantasies. They feel out of control and experience mood swings. They are filled with feelings of guilt and shame.

You may wonder, how sexual addiction is different from normal sexual behavior.

Weiss explains, “in a normal situation, a person is having sex inside a relationship context. He/she is gluing to the person, the eyes, and the soul of the person he/she is being sexual with.” This is different than having the object of sexual fulfillment being images that do not respond. Addiction creates lack of control, shame, and self-loathing and destroys relationships.

As with all addictions, recovery is a one-day at a time process. Interventions and treatment planning is different for each specific person. Most often when one is treated for sexual addition, the chances of recovery are better when their spouse or partner is involved.

In addition to treatment centers like the Heart to Heart Counseling Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, where Dr. Weiss is the Executive Director, there are also 12 Step Programs such as Sex Addicts Anonymous. https://saa-recovery.org/ There are several other similar programs that provide help.

The Six Types of Sexual Addicts information came from a written interview of Dr. Weiss by Barbara Alexander and my email communication with him.

Douglas Weiss, Ph.D., is the Executive Director of Heart to Heart Counseling Center and the author of The Final Freedom: Pioneering Sexual Addiction Recovery (Discovery Press, 2008).

Woman heals from Psychic Medium reading!

September 13, 2016 by @candesscampbell

I am surprised by all the response to the medium John Edwards coming to Spokane. I saw him on TV once and thought – “I can do that!”

When working with clients in my office, often one of their loved ones who passed over would show up. I would ask my client if they wanted me to address their loved one and they always said yes. One day I decided to test my ability in public.

[clickToTweet tweet=”Connecting with your loved one on the other side can be incredibly healing. ” quote=”Connecting with your loved one on the other side can be incredibly healing. ” theme=”style1″]

IMG_0862I created an event at a local library and didn’t charge since I was testing myself. I have done public events as a psychic for years, but not as a medium. Over 100 people showed up and there was standing room only. I let everyone know I was practicing. I asked the audience who had someone they would like me to reach.

There was a woman on the right about three rows back I felt drawn to. I saw anguish in her face. At the same time there was a young male voice I heard within, telling me it was wrong. He was trying to get my attention. I asked her who died and she said her son. His voice got louder and I knew the information she was told was wrong. I asked her “how did they say he died?” She said suicide. As soon as she said this her son’s voice got louder and more clear. He explained to me what happened and it was not suicide at all. I shared with this woman what he told me and peace came over her and her face softened.

At that moment, I became aware that as a counselor it would have taken maybe two years for her to get the relief I witnessed her getting in about two minutes.

[clickToTweet tweet=”With a psychic medium reading she healed what would have taken years in therapy. ” quote=”With a psychic medium reading she healed what would have taken years in therapy. ” theme=”style1″]

It has been difficult coming out as a psychic and a medium in my conservative community, but what I witness when I work with clients is amazing. At the last private psychic party I facilitated, several of the women wanted to talk to their mothers who had passed over. I am thinking of making this a theme party in the future and especially around Mother’s Day.

Contact me for a private psychic medium reading.

Mothers are a Mixed Bag

May 1, 2016 by @candesscampbell

Spring came early this year in Spokane. It is usually around Mother’s Day that I buy the plants for my pots.

As a therapist I am too aware that Mother’s Day is a mixed bag for many. Some of us did not have great relationships with our mothers for whatever reason. As a psychic and medium, I have been able to help others reconnect with their mother after she passed and either communicate with her or understand why she did things the way that she did. I am so aware of how quickly we can loose people in our lives. My mother died expectantly at age 52. I wish I could have gotten over my “attitude” about what I didn’t get or how it should have been before she died.

2010 Osaka Japan with Rachel 010

In the mid 1990’s I did some deep inner work and re-mothered my inner child. Since then I have been helping clients re-mother themselves. I developed a process that I call What’s Wrong Little Girl. This of course could be changed for your inner male child. The process is below.

I wish I had accepted my mother just as she was. We all develop ways of protecting ourselves as we become shaped by our environment. Whether you become a victim, an avenger, withdrawn, or chaotic; we all do the best we can do at the time. It is as adults we have the opportunity to heal the past and be the best we can be in the here and now!

As you heal your own inner child and then re-integrate her back into your adult-Self, you are able to accept and love others, just as they are.

Enjoy the process and feel free to comment on your progress!

 

Journaling with your Inner Child

Write down

     1. What’s Wrong Little Girl?

State the situation – Person said this, did this, etc. Respond to her by identifying her feelings.

     2. I hear you were afraid, oh, you sound so sad, etc.

She responds with more information because she was heard.

     3. Write more of what she has to say.

Ask her what she needs and listen!

     4. She may need to go for a walk, to listen to music, take a bath, have a healthy snack.

Give her what she needs and promise her you will take care of her and DO IT!

She will learn to trust you again and soon she will integrate back into your adult Self and all will be so much better!

February Astrological Forecast for Valentines!

February 2, 2016 by @candesscampbell

February is not only my birthday month, but it is also the month of Valentine’s Day! Here in addition to the February Astrological Forecast by Lee, I am sharing a part of a compatibility report I had Lee create for me between a man I was dating and myself. This gives you insight to how it can be helpful to have a report done and share to enhance communication. Whenever I date and when I go into a working relationship with someone, I have Lee run a report for me. It is not only helpful, it is fun! A gift of a Compatibility Report is a great idea for Valentine’s Day! (I am changing my friend’s name to Thomas for his privacy.)

Candess Campbell’s Sun in Aquarius and Thomas’s Sun in Pisces:

    Both of you are very open-minded and tolerant toward new ideas, the unusual, and the unconventional. Candess Campbell, however, is much more cerebral than Thomas, who is essentially intuitive and emotional. While Candess Campbell is cool, rational, and always able to give excellent reasons for an opinion or position, Thomas is frequently unable to logically articulate the feeling, values and subtleties that color and shape personally-held attitudes or positions. Also, Thomas is a very sympathetic, compassionate person who feels the needs and pain of others very directly. Candess Campbell has a humanitarian outlook, but is often more concerned with principles and ideals, rather than with real people and their actual situations. Candess Campbell, in fact, is capable of considerable emotional detachment and objectivity, unlike Thomas, who is hopelessly subjective.

Okay, that is only my Sun Sign. I have a big heart too as you will see in the rest of my chart!  Isn’t that great! I love it. Here is Lee’s Astrological Forecast for February 2016!

February 8th   The New Moon in Aquarius at 6:39 am PST ushers in the Chinese New Year of the Monkey. On the heels of a static western January 1st Gregorian New Year calendar arrives the cyclical Chinese eastern calendar “New Year of the Monkey” illustrating that time is relative, and not all calendars are created equal in the global village.

February 13th   Mercury enters the sign of Aquarius at 2:43 pm PST. The planet Mercury returns to the sign of Aquarius for the second time this year after 36 consecutive days in the sign of Capricorn on the Eve of Valentine’s Day. Mercury will station retrograde four times this year on January 5th, April 28th, August 30th, and December 19th.

February 16th  Venus enters Aquarius at 8:17 pm PST: Venus joins the Sun and Mercury in Aquarius extending her respects to grace the celebration of the Chinese New Year.

February 18th  The Sun arrives in Pisces at 9:34 pm PST. The Sun joins Chiron and Neptune in the sign of Pisces forming harmonious aspects to the Moon in Cancer and Mars in Scorpio. The annual Pisces Solar cycle heightens spiritual experiences, dreams and intuitive healings with assistance from transiting Jupiter in Virgo to Chiron on Pisces.

February 22nd  Full Moon in Virgo/Pisces at 3 deg 34 min at 10:20 am PST. This year’s Full Moon in February highlights completions of ceremonial rituals and traditions such as the annual Mardi Gras that began with this February’s New Moon in Aquarius.

February 28th  The Sun conjoins Neptune in Pisces at 9 deg 30 min at 7:48 am PST. The Sun and Neptune merge in the sign of Pisces on what would otherwise be the final day of February, except for the fact that 2016 is a “leap year”. Consequently, the western calendar adds one more day in February every 4 years resulting in a 366 day year in 2016. The conjunction of the Sun and Neptune in the sign of Pisces provide a brief portal for heightened intuitive and spiritual connections.

Thanks to Lee of StillwatersAstro for this great report and all the support he has given me over the years!
