People often ask me: how does a lawyer with twenty years of corporate experience end up guiding others through past lives? It is a fair question. And the honest answer is that the path was never really a detour — it was always where I was heading.

I grew up in Ukraine, then part of the USSR, in a world where everyone was expected to be the same. Grey clothes, perfect grades, no visible emotion. Weakness was not tolerated. But even as a child, I was drawn to questions that had no easy answers.

When I was seven or eight years old, the first book I read on my own was Nostradamus's Quatrains. It made a deep impression on me. And when my grandfather died shortly after — a man whose illness was linked to the aftermath of Chernobyl — I refused to accept that physical death was simply the end of everything. That refusal became the quiet engine of my spiritual life for the next three decades.

I graduated with the highest honours in Law and Jurisprudence from one of the best universities in Kyiv, and spent the next twenty years building a career. The corporate world is consuming in the best and worst ways. It demands everything, and for a long time I gave it everything willingly.

But our Higher Self has its own plans.

Within a short period, almost everything I had built fell away. I lost my grandmother and my father within two months of each other. A long-term relationship ended. And in February 2022, Russia attacked Ukraine — and my son and I had to leave our home and seek safety in the United Kingdom.

Those first months in the UK gave me something I had not had in years: time. Time to sit with myself. Time to grieve, to reflect, and to ask honestly — what do I actually want my life to be?

I chose myself. And that is when things began to shift.

I met my husband Gary, who brought with him a depth of love and support I had never experienced before. And I returned, with fresh eyes, to the spiritual questions I had carried since childhood.

Throughout 2025, I became completely absorbed in the work of Dolores Cannon — the pioneering hypnotherapist who spent over forty years exploring past lives, the subconscious mind, and what she called the Higher Self through her method known as QHHT® (Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique).

I read almost all of her books. And something in me recognised what she had discovered: that within each of us lies a vast, wise, and deeply compassionate intelligence — one that holds the answers to our most pressing questions, and the capacity to heal what medicine sometimes cannot explain.

After reading her work, I knew with complete clarity: this is what I want to do.

In 2026, I completed the official QHHT® training, passed the practical assessment, and received my Level 1 Practitioner Certificate.

What I bring to this work is not only the QHHT® method itself, but everything that came before it — my analytical mind trained in law, my life experience of loss and rebuilding, my years of spiritual study, and a genuine, deep desire to help people find their own answers.

Because I have seen — in my own life and in the lives of others — that so much of what we carry has roots we cannot see. Fears, patterns, physical symptoms, a persistent sense of incompleteness. Past life regression and QHHT® offer a way to explore those roots gently, safely, and with the guidance of your own subconscious wisdom.

I do not believe healing has to be painful or complicated. I believe it can be profound, even joyful — a genuine homecoming to yourself.

If you feel called to explore this work, I would love to hear from you. You can book a session or get in touch here.
