my approach & Praxis

My Services

  • 2 hour session, $210

    Full session exploring a past life, moving through young childhood and womb regression, and including life review and possible healing interventions.

    Experiencing our past lives can inform the present in deeply powerful ways—seeing and feeling patterns, giving back burdens that aren’t yours to carry, knowing in your body what a completely different way of being feels like in your body and spirit. Any challenge you are experiencing in this life can be understood more fully through experiencing a past life; the review of that life can provide opportunities for your own inner wisdom and spirit guides to help you understand, release, respond, and move forward with compassion and confidence.

  • 40 min, $50

    For those new to PLR or those wanting external support, a follow-up Integration session one-two weeks after PLR, delves into reflections, incorporations, and practices to maximize impact of the experience.

    Experiencing hypnosis means you’ve bodily processed the experiences that came forward—no thinking or integration is required for much healing to take place. And still, a praxis of integration and wellness can greatly maximize the impacts of any given session. These oportunities are included in the session itself and this follow-up option is offered as an additional space to process the ideas and expereinces that have come forward.

  • 75 minute sessions, $150 or, for limited time only, bundling option of 3 for $333

    Engaging a variety of hypnosis techniques—including parts work, dream analysis, and time line work—address somatic solicitations, habits, stuckness, fears, grief and the underlying issues behind changes you are looking to make or understandings you want to acheive. You have the wisdom to address your challenges and with hypnosis-based coaching sessions you can address and resolve issues that have you feeling stuck. I’ll use a variety of techniques to help you understand, release, respond, and move forward.

    Hypnosis provides a wealth of growth possibilities, from building stability and nervous system strength admidst crisis to helping you get to root causes and let go of long-held limiting beliefs, problematic patterns, and negative stories. Increase your self esteem, identify purpose and passion, let go of all you want to release. Embrace you.

  • 75 minute session, $150

    Typically done after you’ve already had at least one PLR with me or elsewhere: spending time meeting a new or familiar guide/s—be they angels, saints, ancestors, or spirits—exploring Akashic records, soul contracts, or simply getting familiaw with how to strengthen your awareness and work with a guode. These guides help connect you to your own inner wisdom, intuition, and to the superconscious.

  • 75 minutes; four people minimum and twelve people maximum online, $40/person

    Group sessions can be deeply rich experiences for each person, as well as for the group as a whole. While more like a journeying meditation and not allowing the particularized guidance that individual sessions offer, a group session can be a powerful and moving way to engage in soul work, spirit exploration, or wellness practices in community. This can be a low cost way to explore ways to develop a practice around connecting to your inner wisdom and guides and to see patterns of soul experience.

  • Tia H from Durham, NC

    I experienced hypnotherapy with Tes and I remain stirred to the core since that session. I appreciate how she laid out what I would be experiencing, letting me know that I am always in control. Afterwards, I also appreciated the unpacking and her reflections that led me to ask deeper questions. I am grateful to have had such a caring and skillful guide through past journeys.

  • Jennifer from Mississippi

    My sessions with tes were amazing! I completed the smoking cessation and past life regression sessions. I am so grateful for the loving gentleness and intentionality by which tes held space for me and guided me through the process. I felt safe to explore and engage part of myself in ways that were new, revealing, and transformative. This experience has expanded my sense of self and given me important tools for my healing journey

  • Muriel from Durham, NC

    Tes is a talented and intuitive listener who captured and reflected all my different expressions into a delivery that I could take with me, and will use long after the session has ended. Thank you Tes!

  • Natalie from Bahama, NC

    Tessa gave me a wonderful experience from the comfort of my own home. Some of the insights that I was able to find out about myself were astounding! Tessa truly made me feel comfortable and helped me make connections that I would not have thought of myself. I am so grateful for her sharing her gift with me! If you need that insight to inner healing, I believe that Tessa is blessed with the skills to help bring it out!

  • RB from North Carolina

    My session with Tes was nothing short of magical. The messaging that Tes crafted for the session was 100% on point as far as the issues I came to her with. I was truly blown away at how just one session created a major transformation in my outlook, energy and whole being. I could literally feel the issues I came with peeling off of me and by the end of the session I felt lighter, brighter and generally full of enthusiasm. It's the next day and I am still feeling great! I highly recommend Tes and strongly believe in the efficacy of this tool to work with our subconscious.

  • Robert from NC

    Although I am very adept at self and guided meditation, I had never partaken in any type of hypnotherapy prior to meeting with Tes. I was a bit apprehensive, but Tess quickly put me at ease with her calm and reassuring manner. She explained each movement through time with hypnotherapy, in a slow and progressive manner. That, of course, reassured me also, knowing how we would venture forth. I was very relaxed throughout the hypnotherapy as her voice was soft and reassuring along our journey. She also had me find a mentally safe place in case I became frightened during the session. That never happened and I did not have to use my safe place. Tes made everything comfortable for me and made my journey, interesting, exciting, emotionally wonderful, and fun. Tess is a wonderful guide, and I would highly recommend her to anyone that is interested in regression hypnotherapy.

  • Karen Salyer McElmurray from MARYLAND

    Working with Tes was amazing. The two sessions were like dreams, filled with signs and symbols from my own psyche. I will be holding on to the images I received as I work to understand these gifts of imagination and sacred space. Prior to the guided sessions Tes was so perceptive, listening with mind and heart to my experiences with anxiety. She offered tools I can use as I heal, and the guided sessions have offered me much I am still processing. I so recommend Two Crows and Tes Thraves.

  • REBECCA FROM NC

    Tessa is amazing! The environment created by her is relaxing and trustworthy. This was my first experience with hyponosis and I am still processing the experience but would highly recommend.

  • SUNNY FROM DURHAM

    I am amazed by how perfectly helpful my first session with Tes was and am definitely going back for more. I was at a very low and stuck point where other healing modalities and psychotherapies were not quite able to bring shifts I was longing for. I walked away from my PLR session with clear soul connection, a major blessing, that has been bringing them and I am deeply relieved. Seeing through all the layers to understand my mission for this life has brought clarity, hope, direction and willingness. This accompanied by many new tools and other forms of guidance brought by the session have been life changing. The safety, presence and intuition Tes embodies and offers made this possible. She is an incredible healer and human and I am so grateful to have met her. Would 10/10 recommend trying any of her offerings that call to you.

  • Amy Wheeler from VA

    The experience was powerful, visceral and full of imagery. It integrated parts of myself that were conflicted. I felt safely guided and feel the effects will continue to unfold.

  • NICOLE HARP, animal communicator

    WOW. I feel as if I spent a week at an intense retreat clearing away years of old baggage. I feel more expansive, I feel more in my body, I feel like a clearer channel, I have more energy because I feel emotionally lighter - less sadness. I did not have many 'good' memories of childhood - I do now. I was able to capture full color imagery of glorious memories with my mother and family that I feel has healed me from the soul out. I can go right back to them at time I want in my mind's eye. An invaluable experience I will cherish and schedule to do again, so much explored and yet depths still to uncover. I will say it was the perfect time and space alinement.

  • Emily from PA

    This was a very inspiring experience! I was nervous going into the session and realized quickly that it was not scary but completely engaging! I think everyone should try PLR at least once!

  • Sherrie Dillard

    Tessa creates a comforting, warm and nurturing environment to explore and heal our inner cosmos. She makes it easy to look within at the stuff that we tend to shy away from. In her enlightened wisdom she guides us into self love, acceptance and awakening.

  • Stephanie C. from VA

    Undergoing past regression therapy has been a transformative experience that is helping me uncover, understand, and release deep-rooted patterns that had been affecting my life. Tes guides me with compassion and skill, creating a safe space where I feel comfortable. … One of the most profound aspects of regression therapy was the sense of empowerment it gave me. By understanding the origins of my fears and patterns, I could finally let go of burdens that I have carried around for so long. This process not only brought greater clarity and peace in my daily life, but it also strengthened my sense of self-worth and resilience. … I highly recommend Tes as a coach. She is very skilled and insightful and holds space for you in a compassionate and caring way.

what Hypnosis is, and Isn’t…

download a PDF about logistics and what to expect!

Hypnosis is a state deeply focused attention and heightened awareness. In this state you are always fully aware and in complete control. Your facilitator can guide you to access your inner wisdom and deep connection, both to your body and the patters of beliefs and behaviors. All hypnosis is self hypnosis, so if you are ready and believe you can do this work, you can.

The hypnosis for hypnotherapy is not stage hypnosis; you will not cluck like a chicken or do or say anything you don’t choose to say. It is not a magic cure, but your willingness and readiness does mean you can have profound and immediate impacts physically, mentally, and spiritually.

Hypnotherapy can open up blocked spaces, help you identify patterns in your life, and answer questions you aren’t even sure how to ask. It can provide a way for you to hear your own inner wisdom, and choose a new path.

and GRIEF?

Past life regression offers a unique lens through which to view grief—one that emphasizes continuity rather than finality. By embracing this holistic approach, I can help individuals not only navigate their grief but also find meaning and purpose in the process. What if grief isn’t suffering, but is the work of love?

Here are several ways in which past life regression can aid in the grieving process:

1. **Understanding Connections**: Many individuals report feeling a deep, inexplicable bond with those they have lost. Through regression, they may uncover past life connections that explain these feelings. Understanding that their relationship transcends this lifetime can foster a sense of comfort and continuity.

2. **Releasing Unfinished Business**: Grief often stems from unresolved issues or unspoken words. By accessing past experiences, individuals can identify and process these lingering emotions, enabling them to achieve closure and emotional release.

3. **Gaining Perspective**: Engaging with past life memories can broaden one’s understanding of life and death. Witnessing the cycle of existence can instill a sense of peace and acceptance, helping individuals see their grief in a larger context of spiritual growth and evolution.

4. **Healing Emotional Wounds**: The therapeutic journey through past lives can facilitate deep emotional healing. By confronting and processing past traumas, while knowing you are held and safe, individuals can alleviate the weight of grief, allowing them to embrace a more hopeful outlook on life.

5. **Fostering Resilience**: Understanding that the soul is on a continuous journey can empower individuals to view their current challenges, including grief, as part of a larger narrative. This perspective can cultivate resilience and encourage a proactive approach to healing.
