Robert Hoffman
(1921-1997
Bob Hoffman, renowned for his intuitive capacities, was a gifted and generous man. He was dedicated to awakening people to the astonishing power of love that dwells within each of us, believing that unconditional love is the birthright of every human being. Hoffman embodied his profound yet elegantly simple theory of the Negative Love Syndrome into a powerful experiential learning modality known as the Hoffman Process.
Hoffman’s basic insight came to him in 1967. For the next ive years he collaborated with psychotherapists and psychiatrists to help individuals on a one-on-one basis. In 1972, he and noted psychiatrist Claudio Naranjo, MD, began presenting Hoffman’s method as a 13- week (two evenings per week course in a group setting.
He called it the Fischer-Hoffman Process in honor of the late Siegfried Fischer, MD. Over the next 12 years, the Fischer-Hoffman Process gained a reputation for producing deep and lasting results. In 1976, Hoffman authored Getting Divorced from Mother and Dad, published by E. P. Dutton and Co., Inc. It was later republished under the title No One is to Blame, Freedom from Compulsive Self-Defeating Behavior.
In 1985 Hoffman reformatted his program into an eight-day residential intensive, renamed it the Hoffman Quadrinity Process, and then initiated an eight-year period of inspired development and re inement. Today it is known as the Hoffman Process, and is presented in 14 countries to some 5,000 participants each year. The Hoffman Process underwent another rejuvenation in 2013 to become a week-long program.
Bob Hoffman retired from teaching the Process in 1991, but remained active in with the Institute until his death in 1997.
