Chip Coffey is an American psychic from Elmira, New York, currently living in Atlanta, Georgia.[1] He appears as a medium on various paranormal television programs, primarily Paranormal State and Psychic Kids. On Psychic Kids he acts as a mentor towards children who claim to have psychic abilities, primarily seeing ghosts. He is openly gay [1][2] and his activist message for the It Gets Better Project to the victims of bullying as himself the victim of vicious gaybashing assaults is

“ If you're being bullied, don't give up. Please don't give up. It does get better. Don't allow these bullies to make your life a living hell. Make them take accountability and responsibility and even punishment for the torture that they're inflicting on you. You deserve a good life. You'll have a good life. You just have to believe that you will. It does get better.[3] ”

History

According to Coffey, when he was a child, he would tell his parents when the phone was about to ring and who was calling; referring to his ability to read the past, present and future as a "God given talent"[4] Coffey said that when he reached adulthood, he began to see full-body apparitions. He also defines what he feels is the difference between a ghost and a spirit is that "the latter has completed the journey between the world of the living and the world of the dead. Ghosts, on the other hand, are souls that, for whatever reason, have chosen to stick around. They may not know they're dead, or they may fear judgment on the other side."[5]
