Tim Brunson, PhD
Doctor of Philosophy in Clinical Hypnotherapy
This is the page where I can say that I've been a lot of places and done a lot of things. The truth is that I have. You see, I'm a career student who has not only taught at two universities, but I've also constantly gone to school and attended numerous conferences. While I love taking on challenges like learning an additional language or learning to fly helicopters, I have migrated from the business world (and the military where I retired as a Army Reserve Colonel) to the almost full time study of mind-body modalities. I currently have over 2,700 documented hours of training. Also, I have trained under some of the top names (including many authors) in the field.
Starting with NLP back in the early 1990's, I quickly became interested in hypnosis. Then after meeting several of the more elightened psychological and medical professionals, I became seriously interested in mind-body phenomena. This led me to experts in the area of energy psychology and energy medicine, two fields that help explain the totality of our being. Parallel to these studies I continually crossed paths with many Bon-po and Tibetan Buddhist masters. I quickly became interested in how their ancient studies matched our current interests in human nature and potential. Most recently I have been studying artificial intelligence, genetic expression, sound, music, and film. Specifically, I am curious as to how these areas relate to my interest in transforming human traits, changing human physical health, and helping us reach our potential.
I've included this page so that the public (including clinicians) can learn more about the personality behind the sessions available through this site.
