About Laura
For starters I will tell you that I count my blessings.
I am the owner of La Befana’s Specialty Gift Shoppe Inc. formally located in the Historic Village of Montgomery, New York and in the process of relocating the store.
I was born in New York and raised as a Roman Catholic.
I am a wife and mother. I married my best friend and we have a wonderful son. I have an amazing family with terrific parents, brother, sisters and in-laws. I am lucky to have good friends and many acquaintances.
I am often asked what makes me psychic and truly I have never questioned it, God has made me psychic. We have all been given this wonderful gift from the Spirit. I am just one of those individuals who is much more aware and sensitive to the world around me on a spiritual level. I allow myself to be open to the Spirit. I see, hear, smell, taste, feel, and sense things that most people are not aware of because they do not know how to or they do not want to open themselves to it.
I know that we are all born with the "gift" and some people are more sensitive, open and aware of their abilities than others. Different people have different abilities: some of us may hear things, others will see things, and some may just feel. This is what makes, a "variety" of spiritual people, psychics and intuits. We all work differently tapping into our gifted ability to access our "higher self". What one chooses to do with their gift is entirely their choice.
I am an intuitive/psychic reader who possesses and acknowledges my skills of clairvoyance (psychic vision), clairaudience (psychic hearing), clairsentience (psychic feeling), clairalience (gift of smell), claircognizance (gift of knowing) and clairgustance (gift of taste). I am empathic. My own awareness began at the age five but at the time was considered to be "very taboo" and was not spoken about. I have been providing readings for many years, professionally since 1996. I am a vessel filled with good and positive energy! I love what I do and I am doing what I love! I help people feel a sense of clarity and understanding.
