Having trouble entering a past life is rare, and I have several backup plans ready if it happens. If you are blocked or struggling to regress, I set the past life work aside and move the session into another hypnosis process such as Parts Therapy or Gestalt Therapy, and those approaches tend to bring up rich material of their own. I can also use alternative entry techniques like travel in your imagination, the infinite pool or the sphere of possibilities to establish a direct connection with your spirit guides or your Higher Self. Either way you still receive a full, deeply healing session. In my experience the session goes where it needs to go, and a different doorway often turns out to be the right one for you.

Yes, in my experience a mother's intense emotions during pregnancy can leave a deep energetic imprint on the baby in the womb. One woman I worked with had carried an underlying anxiety her whole life and could never trace it to anything in her own story. When we revisited the womb under hypnosis, she found her mother in a state of constant fear and survival mode while pregnant, because her parents had recently fled the Holocaust. Once she could see that the fear belonged to her mother's history and not to her own modern body, she was able to separate the two and release it. Clients often tell me that kind of relief runs deep, because the anxiety finally has a source and a place to go.

Yes, this is called a proxy session, and I offer it for younger children and children with special needs where direct hypnosis is not appropriate or practical. In a proxy session I hypnotize a parent, usually the mother, and guide her through childhood, the womb and a past life to build energetic depth. Once she is connected with her Higher Self, I ask permission to connect with the child's Higher Self. The child's Higher Self then speaks directly to me through the parent's voice, offering profound insights, explanations for behaviors and direct healing guidance for the family. Parents often tell me it is the first time they have understood what their child has been trying to communicate.

That instant, unexplainable familiarity with someone is often a sign that your souls have shared many past lives. Souls travel and incarnate together in groups, working on shared lessons over many lifetimes and trading roles as spouses, siblings, parents and close friends. Before your session you fill out a cast of characters list with the important people in your life. As past life scenes come up, I cross reference that list, and clients are frequently surprised to recognize a current spouse or friend in a very different role. Seeing the original agreements and karmic bonds behind the connection tends to bring clarity, and many people come away understanding why this particular relationship feels so deep.

After a session, you may feel deeply relaxed, peaceful, and perhaps a bit tired. It is common to experience a shift in perspective and a greater sense of clarity about your life. The insights gained during the regression often continue to unfold over the following days and weeks. I always recommend taking some quiet time for reflection after our work together, allowing the profound wisdom of your soul to fully integrate.

Intense, irrational likes and dislikes are very often carryovers from previous lives. An obsession with the Victorian era, a strong aversion to a particular culture, a refusal to watch anything medieval like Game of Thrones, these tend to have a story behind them. Your soul carries cellular memories of where you have lived and how you died. In my experience an obsession usually points to a comforting lifetime where you were happy and fulfilled, while a severe aversion typically marks a past life of real suffering in that region or era, imprisonment, trauma, or a hard death. A regression lets you go back and see where the feeling comes from.
