What people usually notice is a pattern that has no explanation in this life. A fear of water or heights with no event behind it. A relationship that feels like it started long before you met. A strong pull toward a place or an era you have never visited, or a strong dislike of one. A talent that came so easily you have to wonder where it came from. Chronic tightness somewhere in the body that no one has been able to account for. I am not going to hand you a list and tell you what your signs mean, because I don't tell you anything, I ask you things. What tends to happen in a session is you start connecting dots and realize some of what is going on with you now is a memory, but instead of a memory from this life, it is a memory from another life. And you can let go of those connections.

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 Game. You imagine holding a ball, you toss it up, and you watch it turn into a balloon. That is the whole thing. 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.

Parts Therapy and Gestalt Therapy are hypnotherapy techniques I use to settle internal conflicts while you are in hypnosis. They come into play when different parts of your subconscious are pulling in different directions, say one part of you that badly wants to succeed in business and another part that holds you back out of fear. Instead of fighting those feelings, I guide the parts to speak to each other, voice their concerns and negotiate an agreement they can both live with. Clients often tell me the tug of war eases once each part has been heard. The aim is to integrate your mind so you can move forward with more self trust and less second guessing.

Connecting with your Higher Self is part of the Quantum Healing Hypnosis session, and it is one of the most natural parts of the work, typically from your very first one. To prepare, you write a list of the personal questions that matter most to you. Once you are in a deep hypnotic state, the Theta brainwave frequency, your logical, analytical thoughts step aside. Then I speak directly to your Higher Self and ask it to answer through your voice, or to deliver sudden, clear knowings. Clients often say something like "this just popped in my head," and that is exactly it. What you end up with is an open line of communication and clear spiritual guidance on the questions you brought. The video on the QHHT preparation page, under Sessions in the menu, goes deeper into this connection and is worth watching before your session.

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. Under hypnosis 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.

Yes. Positive talents and abilities from past lives, things like writing, teaching, music or healing, are carried forward in your soul's cellular memory. One client of mine had always been drawn to flying, and on his very first lesson he could handle the plane by instinct, because he had been a pilot in a previous life. When we access those lifetimes in trance, I ask your subconscious mind to bring those positive talents forward with you. What tends to happen is that abilities you have barely touched become easier to learn and to amplify, and clients often find themselves using them in their careers or creative work in ways they had not expected.
