Alexandra (Dr. Alexandra Andrews) is a psychic of international renown. In addition to performing accurate psychic readings, Alexandra shows people how to shape their futures more positively by using a combination of psychic disciplines and pastoral counseling. She has formal degrees in Counseling Psychology (M.A.) and Comparative Religion (Ph.D.).

Alexandra, founder and director of the Alexandra Institute, though aware of her psychic abilities since early childhood, began development of them in the Far East and Middle East. She studied the development of those philosophies and, with this knowledge, enhanced her Extra Sensory Perception (ESP). She directed this to the fields of Psychic and Intuitive Development, emphasizing Channeling, Tarot, Palmistry, Numerology, Astrology, and Past Lives. She pioneered the use of Graphology (Handwriting Analysis) as a tool for jury selection.

Prior to devoting herself to the goals of the Alexandra Institute, she headed a large community-based social service agency directed to the problems of individuals and their families and provided counseling, educational and diagnostic services. She also developed courses and programs for the training of the management for those individuals in personal crisis. In addition to conducting research in the training of rehabilitation counselors, Alexandra implemented programs for the management of employees at risk, served on the (California) Governor’s Commission for the Special Needs of Women, and was chosen for special education and training by the National Institute for Mental Health (NIMH). She has often said that “my psychic gifts were perhaps my greatest asset in developing programs for addicted individuals.” She now feels that the use of intuition or psychic energy, are efficacious in the management of emotional pain.”

For the past ten years, Alexandra has taught at several universities throughout the United States (California, Utah, East Carolina, and others), and has served as consultant with spiritual and religious leaders in Washington, D.C., New York, Colorado, Virginia, New Mexico, Washington, and throughout California. Alexandra has enjoyed a popular following with her appearances on television, radio, and in the newspapers - both locally and nationally. She also works extensively with the psycho-therapy and law enforcement communities.

Most recently, she has limited her activity to Southern California while developing the various activities of the Alexandra Institute, a non-profit organization conceived and operated for the sake of the regeneration of spiritual wisdom and ecunemical understanding.

Alexandra is available for private consultations, lectures, seminars and other group functions. In addition, she is available for projects concerned with the paranormal, including communication with/or eviction of etheral spirits. She has been referred to as “San Diego’s answer to Ghost Busters” by local television and print media.

Depending upon her schedule, she does work throughout California, in other parts of the United States, as well as other countries.
