If you are reading this, yes. Every session I do is online over Zoom, so near you is wherever you are comfortable, your own chair, your own quiet room. I worked with clients in person for seventeen years, and since 2020 the whole practice has been online. Your mind is always with you, and that is where the change takes place, so what better place for the session than the very place where you want to notice the change. Find a day and a time on the schedule that works for you, and we meet on Zoom.

Everybody is curious, and that is fine. The time I kind of push back on curiosity is when there is nothing else. Why do you want to do this? I'm just curious. What are you curious about? I want to know who I was in a past life. I like to say it like this. There's no meat on those bones. You need a stronger intention than just curiosity. What do you want that you do not have right now? What would you like to be different in your life after the session? Most clients also have something in the back of their head questioning whether this is real, and that is always there, that is fine too. Once you go through these experiences, once you notice things, realize things, notice changes in your life, it is a lot more than curiosity. And you know what they say about curiosity and the cat, so watch out.

Brian Weiss is the psychiatrist who wrote Many Lives, Many Masters, and many people who contact me say that book is what first made them wonder whether the fears, relationships and unexplained patterns they carry might have a story that reaches beyond this lifetime. His other books include Only Love is Real, Messages from the Masters and Same Soul, Many Bodies. I took a class with him in Austin in 2005 through an Omega Institute program, right after I started learning hypnosis. It was a large group, around 150 people, and watching him guide a group process made the work real for me. It was no longer only something I had read about. If Many Lives, Many Masters is what brought you here, you are in good company. The full story is in the Teachers and Influences section of my blog.

You do not need to deliver eloquent descriptions for this to go well. There is no right or wrong way to experience trance, and once the analytical mind steps aside, words come more easily than you expect. I keep my questions gentle and open, things like what do you notice and tell me more, and I let your impressions come out at their own pace. It is a collaboration rather than a performance. Quiet and anxious clients typically find they feel comfortable within a few minutes and share their journey just fine, and some of the richest sessions I have facilitated came from people who barely said a word in everyday life.

Repeating the same difficult situation, whether it is a relationship pattern, an emotional block or trouble standing in your own power, is often a sign of a soul lesson that is still open. If your soul ran into that challenge in a past life and never fully understood or resolved it, the lesson comes around again in this one. In the hypnotic state we trace the pattern back to where it started in a previous lifetime. Once your subconscious recognizes the lesson underneath the pattern, something shifts. Clients often tell me that understanding the original source is what finally lets them resolve it and step out of the cycle instead of living it one more time.

Normal daily medication has not stopped my clients from going into hypnosis. Hypnosis is a natural brainwave state your mind already visits every day, and people arrive at sessions on all kinds of prescriptions and still go deep. You keep taking whatever you are prescribed exactly as you normally do. On the rare occasion that a session is interrupted or does not get going the way we want, my policy is simply to stop and reschedule another session at no extra charge, so there is nothing to lose by giving it a try. If you have any concern about your particular situation, bring it up on the discovery call and we can talk it through together.
