Since its foundation in 1950 by Prof. Hans Bender (1907-1991), the Institute has offered the interested public a free information and counseling service on the entire spectrum of parapsychology, frontier sciences and anomalistic phenomena, which are summarized under the neutral collective term “exceptional experiences” (ExE). This includes information on the spread and phenomenology of parapsychic experiences as well as expert knowledge on the development, methods, results and problems of interdisciplinary and international research into paranormal (‘anomalistic’) phenomena and exceptional experiences. The emphasis is on the more than 70 years of research and counseling work of the Freiburg Institute, which is reflected in our extensive research library and research archive. The Institute offers a special range of counseling and therapy services for people who are looking for help in coping with and dealing with disturbing or stressful “occult”, “psychic” and paranormal experiences (“mental health”).
Note
The institute neither provides addresses of “scientifically tested” clairvoyants, mediums, healers, dowsers or astrologers, nor does it establish contacts with people with extraordinary (“paranormal”) experiences for the press, radio, television or podcasts. If you would like to seek advice or help from psychics, healers, etc. for personal reasons, we recommend that you first contact our counseling team.
The institute does not offer any “certificates” or “documents” stating that the test subjects possess special “psi abilities” or a paranormal “gift” through participation in experimental investigations at the IGPP. The institute’s experimental research program and its respective projects within this framework are described on the website.
