Brian L. Weiss

Nacido: November 06, 1944 – New York City, New York, United States

Brian L. Weiss is an American psychiatrist and author whose work centers on past-life regression, psychotherapy, and spiritual healing. Best known for the bestseller Many Lives, Many Masters, he helped popularize regression therapy for a wide audience through subsequent books, lectures, and workshops on trauma, healing, and reincarnation.

Biografía y Trayectoria del Autor

Brian L. Weiss built his professional identity inside conventional academic psychiatry before becoming a widely read public writer on past-life regression. Educated at Columbia University and Yale Medical School, he went on to serve as the founding chairman of psychiatry at Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami and later as chairman emeritus. The decisive turning point, by his own account, came when a patient he called Catherine failed to improve through conventional treatment and, under hypnosis, began describing past-life scenes and messages that Weiss believed illuminated her symptoms. That experience redirected a career rooted in mainstream medical training toward books, workshops, and lectures situated at the intersection of psychiatry, spirituality, and popular self-help.
