Yes, teaching is a big part of my work, and there are three certification classes. The professional Hypnotherapy Certification Training comes first, certified through the International Association of Counselors and Therapists, because everything else stands on that foundation. From there my students move into Past Life Regression Training and then Spiritual Connection and Communication Training. All three are taught live online over Zoom, and I have had students from all over the world. Each class has its own page under Events in the menu with the details and upcoming dates. If you are wondering whether this path fits you, that is a perfect conversation for a free discovery call.

An analytical, left brain mind, which I see often in engineers and software developers, is no barrier to hypnosis. To quiet that logical chatter I use a simple visual exercise I call the Ball. You imagine holding a ball, toss it up, and allow it to change into something different. It sounds almost too simple, but what it does is shift you from trying to analyze what is happening into simply allowing impressions to flow from your subconscious. Once that shift happens, the critical mind steps out of the way and my analytical clients access deep memories and knowings just as easily as anyone else. And here is something else about analytical minds. Engineers and programmers are often very creative people, using both sides of the brain, because engineers design things. I worked for 12 years as a programmer, so I can say from personal experience that writing software takes a combination of logic and creativity, and that combination makes an excellent hypnosis subject.

It can happen, and if it does, it is important not to take it personally, because it is not you. It is a past life version of you. The soul is the same but the physical body is different. When a lifetime like that comes up, it comes up because there is some connection to the energy of that time and place in your life today. These situations come up so they can be better understood in terms of what is going on in your current life, processed in the most appropriate way, and released as part of the thorough review we do before you come back, while you are still relaxed. Part of the release is helping you understand that it is not you, and part of the process may involve the past life self forgiving themselves. And you stay in control the whole time. If you feel uncomfortable inside an experience, you can go from being in the body to being the observer watching it.

I cannot answer that specifically for you, because everyone is different, and that lifelong feeling of not fitting in is more common than you might think. It is one of the things people bring to a session as a question. I do not tell you where it comes from ahead of time, and I do not paint a picture during the session either. I ask you what you notice and let your own experience do the explaining. What I will say is that when someone finds the source of that feeling for themselves, the grief tends to lift, and settling into life here gets easier. The discovering is what helps, and it works best when every bit of it is yours.

If you carry memories of dying as a soldier, you are in familiar territory for me. Clients with spontaneous recall of historic battles often carry residual physical and emotional weight from that death into this life. In hypnosis I use release techniques to separate that battlefield energy from your modern body. Reviewing the event from an observer's perspective helps your subconscious take in that the war is over and that you are safe in your current body today. Many people find the fear and tension they carried eases once that message lands. The memory stays, but its grip loosens.

Repetitive conflicts or intense struggles with your partner are often structured on a soul level to trigger necessary growth. Before birth your souls agreed to incarnate together to help each other resolve old karmic patterns or learn lessons such as compassion or boundaries. In the hypnotic state you can trace the conflict pattern back to its original past life cause. Realizing that the ancient struggle belongs to a previous incarnation helps your subconscious release the current relational trigger, and what tends to happen is that the same old argument loses its charge. My clients often report more harmony and peace at home afterward, not because their partner changed but because the pattern underneath the fight has been seen and set down.
