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

The Art of Hypnotic Regression Therapy



Two of hypnotherapy's stellar practitioners, Roy Hunter and Bruce Eimer, have pooled their expertise to produce a book on regression hypnotherapy so comprehensive, it is the only guide to regression hypnosis a hypnotherapist will ever need. In The Art of Hypnotic Regression Therapy, the authors have drawn from their mentors, David Cheek, Charles Tebbetts, and Dabney Ewin, as well as other hypnotherapists whose work established major milestones in hypnotherapy practice.

Do the Healing Work You Love & the Money will Follow...But When?



by Coach Cary Bayer

About a year ago, a friend of mine, who's a hypnotherapist who never tried to build a business after receiving her training and license to practice, was fed up with the job she was doing to pick up a paycheck. About half a year earlier, she had read the book, Do What You Love, the Money will Follow, by Marsha Sinetar, and decided it was high time she finally quit and pursue her passion--to build a healing business once and for all. But after six months of not getting enough clients to get her practice off the ground, the money wasn't following. She did a lot of waiting and complaining, but little else. She did little to proactively make the money follow, something I've observed often in many of the three hundred-plus alternative healer clients I've coached the past 10 years. She was living off her savings, which were running low. Panicked, she asked me what to do.

Enhancing Decision Making with Hypnotherapy



by Tim Brunson PhD

Almost always when I see a person in a clinical situation, the obvious conclusion is that the presenting problem or issues involves prior decisions. However, while the wisdom of their choices – to include their awareness of relevant options – may indeed be part of the problem, I have increasingly come to the determination that the true nature of their concerns is not which decisions are being made but rather how they are made.
