Lisa Michelle Williams (born 19 June 1973 in Birmingham, England) is a self-proclaimed psychic and medium, who has starred in two shows on Lifetime Television: Lisa Williams: Life Among the Dead (2006–2007) and Lisa Williams: Voices From the Other Side (2008).

Williams also appeared on Deal or No Deal when the episode aired on NBC on 31 March 2008. She also made a guest appearance in one of Lifetime's other shows, America's Psychic Challenge.

In 2004, Williams gave a reading to a senior staff member of TV host Merv Griffin. As a result, Griffin worked with her to host a show of her own. Lisa Williams: Life Among the Dead aired for two seasons on the Lifetime network (2006-2007). Her show Lisa Williams: Voices From the Other Side ran for five consecutive nights on the network in October 2008. The shows followed Williams on a typical day, as she claims to communicate with the dead, investigates haunted houses, and conducts other spirit-seeking activities. In March 2009 Williams toured Australia.^{[citation needed]}

Marriage and family[]

Williams had a long-term relationship with Simon Shore, with whom she had a son, Charles Edward Williams-Shore. They separated.

On 30 October 2004, Williams married Kevin Harris. They moved to Los Angeles, California when she was producing her TV shows. As of 2009, they were still living in Los Angeles.^[1] On her Hay House Radio show on 9 December 2009, Lisa announced that she and Kevin were separating. Williams was in a relationship with a female partner but is now single and lives in Upstate New York with her son Charlie and their two dogs, Max and Lucy.^[2]

Williams is the granddaughter of Frances Glazebrook, a British medium.^{[citation needed]}

Career[]

On June 21, 2019, in Edinburgh Scotland, Alistair McLauchlan attended one of William's Mediumship events. In her opening statement Williams asked how many people were there for forensics. One of the seminars the following day was on forensics, breaking down evidence supplied from spirits and extrasensory perception. According to McLauchlan, while highly publicized missing person cases tend to attract many mediums who use it as a means of building their portfolio, most law enforcement do not acknowledge their involvement. As Williams begins the discussion, she primes the audience saying they should think outside the box and make connections to the messages she claims to receive from the dead because they can sometimes be muddy. She then goes on with basic Cold reading tactics even speaking to a dog that had passed away. McLauchlan concludes the article saying while Williams has good stage presence building rapport with her audience, Williams uses wild guesses from a primed audience, firing questions then picking through their reactions that fit her narrative.^[3]
