The Method

Therapy That Goes to the Source

Most therapy works on the surface, managing symptoms, adjusting behavior, reframing thoughts. Causation Therapy goes deeper. It locates the original cause of a pattern, which often lies not in this lifetime, but in the soul's history across many lifetimes.

Working in full waking consciousness, no hypnosis, clients re-experience the source event, release the emotional charge that has held the pattern in place, and emerge free of it. The results are immediate and lasting.

Is This For You?

You May Recognize Yourself Here

This work often serves people who sense that the visible story is not the whole story. The signs are not always loud; sometimes they appear as repeating patterns, quiet limitations, or a deeper layer calling to be understood.

A Quiet Question

Is this work for me?

Repeating relationship patterns

Connections begin with promise, yet somehow return to the same ending.

Unexplained fears or phobias

The fear feels real, but its origin is difficult to locate in this lifetime.

Invisible ceilings

You reach a certain level of success, intimacy, or freedom; then something pulls you back.

Carrying what was never yours

There is a sense of burden, guilt, grief, or responsibility that feels older than the present story.

Symptoms without clear cause

There may be a physical or emotional symptom with no fully satisfying explanation.

Unresolved grief or endings

Something feels unfinished, a loss, separation, death, betrayal, or goodbye that still echoes.

Spiritual curiosity

You feel drawn to understand the soul’s larger journey beyond the surface of this life.

A deeper layer is calling

You have done inner work, but sense there is another origin beneath what you have already explored.

The Process

How the Work Unfolds

Causation Therapy follows the inner thread of a present-day concern back to its originating cause, so what has remained unresolved can finally be seen, understood, and released.

The work does not begin with theory. It begins with what is alive now; then gently follows the deeper movement beneath the surface.

01

Presenting Concern

Start with what is happening now

We begin with the issue that is most alive, a repeating pattern, fear, symptom, relationship struggle, or life block.

02

Inner Thread

Trace the pattern deeper

Through a focused, awake process, we follow the emotional and energetic thread beneath the current issue.

03

Originating Cause

Bring the source into awareness

The underlying experience is brought into consciousness, whether rooted in this life, pre-natal, birth, ancestry, or prior-life impressions.

04

Release

Free the pattern at its source

As the original charge is processed and released, the system no longer needs to repeat the same pattern.

In Their Own Words

What Clients Have Experienced

“

"My four-hour past-life experience was an awakening from a 48-year stupor. For the first time in my life I experienced profound understanding regarding my attitude toward particular circumstances, my dreams, my fears — and most importantly, my infinite capacity to love."

— Rochelle  ·  Los Angeles
“

"As a psychiatrist, I came to Dr. Richards skeptical. I left changed. Since that day, I haven't been the slightest bit afraid of death. What I experienced; that profound sense of calm and peace, has stayed with me in a way that nothing else in my life ever has."

— Darla, M.D.  ·  Psychiatrist
