Parts Therapy for Inner Conflict Resolution: An Effective Hypnosis Technique Parts Therapy is a powerful hypnosis method designed to help clients overcome inner conflicts and self-sabotage, especially when they struggle to achieve goals or break habits. Developed by hypnotherapy pioneer Charles Tebbetts, Parts Therapy has been refined by experts like Roy Hunter and Bruce Eimer, PhD, ABPP, who provide immersive, experiential workshops for hypnotherapists. In Parts Therapy, different aspects of a person’s subconscious—often thought of as "parts" or roles—are addressed to resolve conflicts. This client-centered technique is effective in cases where other hypnosis methods fall short, and helps clients move past obstacles by harmonizing these parts. Learning Parts Therapy equips hypnotherapists with tools to facilitate transformative sessions through an 11-step protocol, ideomotor techniques, and integration processes. Workshops cover key areas, including Parts Therapy fundamentals, client preparation, and practical application, along with specialized uses such as pain management and grief resolution. Hypnotherapists gain skills through live demonstrations and role-playing exercises.
