Tessa Groff: Mediumship, Mental Health & Following Your Calling

Psychic medium Tessa Groff joins The Haunted Therapist for a conversation that goes far beyond ghost stories. Tessa shares how a childhood near-death experience opened the door to mediumship, what it was like growing up with psychic abilities, and how her Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling shaped the way she helps people today. Together, Brett and Tessa explore the overlap between therapy and mediumship, intuition versus anxiety, raising sensitive children, grief, healing, and the idea that some people may be called toward helping professions and paranormal work alike. They also discuss how Tessa met Nick Groff, the inspiration behind Groff Adventures, and why helping families remains at the heart of everything they do. Because whether your ghosts are internal or external… they deserve to be heard and understood. 🖤
