Brian Weiss

As a traditional psychotherapist, Dr. Brian Weiss was astonished and skeptical when one of his patients began recalling past-life traumas that seemed to hold the key to her recurring nightmares and anxiety attacks. His skepticism was eroded, however, when she began to channel messages from "the space between lives," which contained remarkable revelations about Dr. Weiss's family and his dead son. Using past-life therapy, he was able to cure the patient and embark on a new, more meaningful phase of his own career.

Brian L. Weiss, M.D., is the author of the bestselling Many Lives, Many Masters and Same Soul, Many Bodies, among other acclaimed books based on his experience as a psychiatrist and healer.

Dr. Weiss graduated magna cum laude from Columbia University and received his medical degree from the Yale University School of Medicine.  He served his internship at New York University’s Bellevue Medical Center and went on to become chief resident, Department of Psychiatry, at the Yale University School of Medicine.  He is now Chairman Emeritus of psychiatry at the Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami Beach, and he maintains a private practice in Miami.  In addition, Dr. Weiss conducts national and international seminars and experiential workshops as well as training programs for professionals.
