Step One: Please read the Tinnitus FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions).
Step Two: Read the FAQ and series of articles on Tinnitus. They are dated and although some of the recommendations on specific types of therapists are not what I would suggest today....they will help!
Step Three: Contact me (kevin@kevinhogan.com) to secure an appointment. This is where you will design a tinnitus reduction and management program.
I am not taking clients so I will almost certainly refer you to Jennifer Battaglino for all consultations and therapeutic work. She will help you construct a plan and get connected with the right people to get you on the road to reduction. We'll talk about every logical and *proven* treatment for reducing or eliminating the tinnitus YOU experience.
Almost half of the people improve significantly following a well-designed plan with just one teleconsult or at most, a few, over a period of a few months. (Significant tinnitus and hyperacusis reduction.) Remission of tinnitus happens more often than you might think but often requires more intense therapy. Again I will likely refer you to Jennifer Battaglino for therapy. E-mail
kevin@kevinhogan.com
Appointments can be by telephone or in person. Telephone provides flexibility, especially international consults, and phone appointments are my preference. You will discuss what medications other clients have used whose cases are similar to yours. Similarly, you will find out what self help therapies you can do for free or next to nothing.
You will also find out what therapies, treatments and so forth are unlikely to help you or are outright scams. You can spend tens of thousands of dollars...and get nothing.
Worse: People spend precious time early in their tinnitus experience going from place to place and getting absolutely no benefit and their case gets worse. Tinnitus is somewhat analogous to cement. When it's new and soft, it's easy to shift and move. As it solidifies it becomes more difficult and time consuming to reduce and change. Where you focus your early attention in therapy (and almost everything fails as you have probably figured out by now) will in part determine how long it will take to get well. Longer wait before starting a logical action plan, the much longer reduction will take and the less likely remission will be.
Appointments are 90 minutes in length. Therapists I refer you to will do their best to give support via e-mail though I confess over the last 2-3 years the sheer volume of email has become monstrous and I will refer almost all cases now and in the future. Teleconsult fee is typically $250 though it will vary depending on exactly who you speak with. USD.
Before a teleconsult, you will be required to complete and/or provide the following to your therapist:
A complete case history, (in your own words) from onset of tinnitus related symptoms to date. Include any major emotional upsets, deaths, divorces, major accidents or injuries. This history can be emailed to kevin@kevinhogan.com.
A copy of your recent audiogram. Fax to (651) 365-0524 or mailed to: Kevin Hogan, 3432 Denmark Ave. #108, Eagan, Minnesota 55123.
"Tell me that your MRI or CT scan results show normal results (no tumor). I won't work with you after the first teleconsult if tumor has not been ruled out."
WHO SHOULD OWN THIS PROGRAM?
Anyone with tinnitus who would like to reduce the volume of their tinnitus through the use of self-hypnosis CDs, along with other strategies presented in the program.
The Tinnitus Reduction CD Program has helped thousands of individuals reduce the distress associated with tinnitus. In most cases, when individuals utilize the Tinnitus Reduction Program as part of a multi-modality approach to tinnitus reduction they experience long term improvement.
"I had meant to write before as I have had your tapes from July now. They have been wonderful and saved my sanity. My tinnitus is greatly reduced and my Meniere's under control. I return to your tapes as I find them excellent and I use them every night to go to sleep with. Thank you." Anne Clarke
Your CD program includes three hours of up to date information about how to reduce the volume and distress of your tinnitus. This portion of the program is updated regularly.
In addition to the reporting you will receive of what is working in the area of medicine, tinnitus retraining therapy, and other modalities, you will receive self hypnosis CD's specifically designed by Kevin Hogan which assisted him in the elimination of his tinnitus. The first two CD's in the program are the most up to date information about tinnitus relief you can get. Now, you can utilize the same program as part of a multi-modal effort in reducing your tinnitus volume.
Kevin Hogan is a psychotherapist specializing in hypnosis, who didn't stop with just one possible way to experience silence. A multimodal approach is the only way to assure your success in reducing your tinnitus volume and the intense emotional distress that comes from the tinnitus. If you are sick of hearing that "nothing can be done" and "you'll have to learn to live with it," this is the starting point.
The program includes the brand new revised edition of, Tinnitus: Turning the Volume Down which includes the latest developments in reducing tinnitus and hundreds of citations for further research.
Tinnitus Reduction CD Program and the 260 page book, Tinnitus: Turning Down the Volume
100% Lifetime Money Back Guarantee. After you have used this program and the information in it, for six months, you will have a record of specifically how much quieter you are then than now. If you don't think this program lived up to it's billing, return it for a full refund. And, If a CD EVER skips or breaks, we will replace it FREE!
