Welcome to The International Hypnosis Research Institute Web site. Our intention is to support and promote the further worldwide integration of comprehensive evidence-based research and clinical hypnotherapy with mainstream mental health, medicine, and coaching. We do so by disseminating, supporting, and conducting research, providing professional level education, advocating increased level of practitioner competency, and supporting the viability and success of clinical practitioners. Although currently over 80% of our membership is comprised of mental health practitioners, we fully recognize the role, support, involvement, and needs of those in the medical and coaching fields. This site is not intended as a source of medical or psychological advice. Tim Brunson, PhD

Richard Bandler is one of the co-developers of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, a term which he invented. While he was a student of the University of California, Santa Cruz, he led a Gestalt therapy group, John Grinder, the other NLP co-developer, visited Bandler's group. Together they developed a model for therapy based upon transformational grammer. This model was called the meta-model. NLP was influenced by the work of Gregory Bateson, Virginia Satir, and Milton H. Erickson.

Tim Brunson DCH's Gravatar No. Richard Bandler is not affiliated with the Institute. Like the other Who's Who, he is listed in recognition of his contributions to hypnosis and other integrative health care fields. Personally, I consider Dr. Bandler just one of the many geniuses in the field.

Bob's Gravatar Ok, I see. Yeah, I think he is an outstanding genius - who do you think plays in the same league like him? In terms of achieving results with the people they work with. I know there are some people who are good therapists with great marketing, and that creates a perception that they can do things they really can't.

Tim Brunson DCH's Gravatar You are asking me to pass judgment on my friends and colleagues. This is something that I am not willing to do in such a public forum. There are a tremendous number of clinicians who have achieved wonderful results.
However, there are many clinicians in the integrative and allopathic areanas that should not be practicing -- as they are practicing for the wrong reasons. I don't always agree with those in the former group.
Nevertheless, I respect them for their good intentions and I appreciate the results they get. You are right that some practitioners have better marketing than clinical skills. Indeed, I have reviewed a few
well-written books which made no contribution. Some could accuse Bandler of being a marketing genius. However, I also feel that he is extremely knowledgable and talented. On the other hand, there are many
others who I respect depth of their knowledge -- although they have never contributed anything new. Bandler is extremely knowledgable and has contributed greatly to this field.
