About

Although tinnitus is a common international problem, often clinicians find they are unsure of how to treat their tinnitus patients. These two volumes are the first clinical resources for clinicians to provide exact procedures for clinical administration of Tinnitus Retraining Therapy (TRT). The first volume (Clinical Guidelines) is suitable both for clinicians who conduct TRT and as a textbook for academic training programs. The second volume (Patient Counseling Guide)-designed to be used one-on-one with tinnitus (and hyperacusis) patients' is a double-sided resource with information for the clinician on one side and patient information on the other. Anyone who is interested in providing tinnitus management with TRT will find this pair of books immensely useful, practical, and resourceful.

James A. Henry

James A. Henry, PhD, is an audiologist with a doctorate in behavioral neuroscience. He spent over 35 years as an auditory researcher focusing mostly on tinnitus. During his career, he received funding of $28 million as principal or coprincipal investigator for 43 projects and grants. He has authored over 250 publications, including more than 140 articles in peer-reviewed journals and nine books (this one is his tenth). He gave lectures and presentations nationally and internationally. His accomplishments resulted in numerous national awards. Dr. Henry, who retired in 2022, continues to present lectures and training workshops, serves as an educational consultant, and maintains his role as editor-at-large for the American Tinnitus Association’s journal Tinnitus Today. His primary interest is writing books about tinnitus, sound hypersensitivity disorders, and hearing loss. Since his retirement, he has published four books under his corporation Ears Gone Wrong®, LLC. Each of those four books supplements the present book because of the additional detail they contain. Every book written by Dr. Henry maintains the high standard that would be required of any peer-reviewed publication, including hundreds of references to support the text. While the present book is targeted to audiologists, the content would be of interest to all professionals and consumers who desire to learn more about tinnitus.
