What is the Milton H. Erickson Institute of the Bay Area - MHEIBA?
The Milton H. Erickson Foundation authorizes 140 Erickson Institutes world-wide to pursue the ethical practice of and training in Ericksonian hypnotherapy and related methods of healing. Our institute was founded in 1994 and has more than 40 associates. Treatment and education are what we offer to our patients. Healing and learning are what they do within themselves. Communication and relationship invite healing within the person.
MHEIBA is an association of licensed psychotherapists and Feldenkrais Practitioners practicing Erickson-influenced psychotherapy and hypnosis live and online, and teaching student and professional therapists internationally, and online. We organize workshops, Master’s and PsyD program curricula, case consultation and thesis consultation, according to the needs of our sponsors. We have worked with, contracted to, and provided faculty for university departments, professional institutes and workshop organizers in the U.S., Europe, South America, Indonesia and China. Our MHEIBA associates practice in the San Francisco Bay Area, in several states and in Europe and China.
Our teachers are excellent, with wide-ranging expertise. Students and established professionals enjoy learning with us. To honor our contractual commitments, we commit to openness and collaboration, and respect institutional and practice boundaries in place in the areas we teach.We also are openly exploring possible collaborations for future teaching and workshops in other countries and, as appropriate, with other institutions and practices in the countries we’ve taught in.
