My Journey

My name is Matt Derickson. I am a psychic intuitive guide who uses intuitive/claircognizant abilities to help you discover what your truest desires and needs are in your current stage in life, and what you need to do to put these into action to get more of the success, love, satisfaction and sense of purpose that you want. I am able to see patterns in your life and in your energy that may be hindering you from having more of what you desire, and am also able to see patterns that may hint at talents and potentials you didn’t know you had (and how these are really the secret key to what you’re looking for). My greatest joy is in helping you discover how your life is meant to be an adventure, and to help point you on your path to both a greater sense of happiness and achievement, as well as purpose, mission and belonging.

People tell me that I am one of the most unique psychics in Boulder. My specialty is in helping you see that things are not always as they appear, which is especially refreshing for those of us who have had challenging lifetimes or have not fulfilled preconceived notions of who or what we were taught we were ‘supposed’ to be. I am especially oriented to working with those whose life path or current situation do not follow a typical pattern, or have perhaps been more intense or challenging than expected. I see behind the surface-level story of your current circumstances to help you uncover the bigger truth hidden beneath. More often than not, these themes are closely connected, as what may appear to be mysterious or out of place often holds the key to a vast power and potential we didn’t know we had. Before we came into this lifetime, we set clues for ourselves to help us discover this. This has been the case for me, and is what led me to the work I am doing now. And it all started in a way most unexpected.

I didn’t always know I was born into this life. I was born into a middle class family in the Northeast, my mother’s only child. On my father’s side I had four much older half siblings who had all reached adulthood before I was born. My mother was raised Catholic, and loved nature, cooking and interior design. My father was a retired airline pilot who was a firm atheist; he was greatly interested in science and politics, both of which he began discussing with me in unusual detail at around the age of 7. Between the two of them, my mother was the one who had some curiosity about spiritual phenom- ena, including reincarnation, but it was not a serious subject. It was mentioned occasionally with about the same level of interest as history, cuisine or the theater. Their wishes for me mirrored most of what other parents in our demographic envisioned for their children: study hard, get into a good college, have a well-rounded life. We lived in a secluded but modern house nestled in the woods just beyond the edges of the New York suburbs. It was not lonely, as we had many guests. As a child I would while away many leafy fall afternoons after school exploring the woods around our home. It was the mid 1980s.
