What will the next generation of brain-changing therapy look like?

No doubt you’re familiar with mindfulness, but what comes after this? Mindfulness is an intra-personal brain-changing method of focusing attention within your own mind. What will a truly interpersonal neurobiological therapy look like?

This workshop offers the first fully developed therapy based on the brain science of mind-mapping. Mind-mapping—the brain’s innate ability to make a mental map of another person’s mind–focuses on interpersonal mind-to-mind contact.

The Crucible Mind Mapping Therapy Workshop offers new ways to treat highly troubled couples and individuals from dysfunctional backgrounds by revolutionizing psychotherapy. Mind mapping creates entirely different treatment dynamics and closes the loopholes clients escape through. People make difficult self-acknowledgements they would otherwise reject, and self-confrontations they would usually avoid, because the data stream and therapy process is unanticipated. These rapid developments de-escalate hostility and encourage positive brain plasticity in long-troubled couples.

Workshop Description

It’s not often truly life-changing information comes along. After 12 years of clinical development and research, Crucible Mind Mapping Therapy is ready for release.

This workshop covers the incredible neuroscience behind how the brain automatically maps out other people’s minds, and how we come to understand ourselves.

Mind-mapping changes your view of relationships: It’s much easier to accept a dysfunctional relationship when you think your partner is socially inept or mind-blind. When you realize your partner is tracking your responses, mapping your mind, and using this against you, stuck relationships quickly reach critical mass for change.
You’ll also learn about mind-masking, the brain’s ability to ward off being mapped by someone else. Good mind-maskers can make you think they complete lack mind mapping ability. Understanding mind masking will completely change your view of your cases–and maybe your partner too. People who repeatedly do cruel, unhelpful, disappointing and/or hurtful things succeed because of their mind-mapping ability, not because they lack it.
The third major focus concerns traumatic mind mapping (Schnarch, 2009), which occurs when successfully mapping out someone else's mind traumatizes your mind and negatively impacts your brain. Traumatic mind mapping revolutionizes your understanding of how emotional and sexual trauma occurs. Discover the hidden negative short-term and long-term brain impacts caused by repeated traumatic mind-mapping, particularly during childhood.
Therapists often experience traumatic mind mapping in sessions from upsetting realizations about their clients or hearing their terrible stories. Become more resilient to traumatic mind-mapping in your sessions.

Right-Brain Learning

Learning these revolutionary therapy requires new teaching methods. This workshop emphasizes intuitive "right-brain" learning through personal application and extensive multi-media to develop your clinical abilities to use mind mapping in therapy. You will learn how to detect clients’ subtle mind mapping and mind-masking abilities, identify traumatic mind-mapping, introduce mind mapping to sessions, and leverage it into far-reaching insights and effective interventions.

Personal Application

Brain-based mind mapping therapy shakes up people’s lives and opens new avenues of healing and positive brain-change. Learning about it is personally powerful too. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to apply what you’re learning to your own life. In fact, you'll find it hard to stop. You’ll know first-hand what it’s like for clients to go through this.

Past participants say this workshop can shake your world upside-down too. We can’t promise you a life-changing experience, but come prepared for powerful new insights into your clients and how you conduct psychotherapy, together with revelations about your personal relationships and life history, that have lasting impact long after the workshop is over.

Overall, this workshop helps you develop your mind and brain as a clinical tool. Become a better source of positive brain-change in your clients, and the important people in your life.

The 4 Day Crucible® Mind Mapping Therapy workshop will help you to:

Harness interpersonal neurobiology through the brain science of mind-mapping.
Strengthen couple therapy by detecting client’s mind-mapping and mind-masking abilities.
Identify traumatic mind mapping and its short and long term neurobiological impacts.
Introduce mind-mapping in sessions and leverage this into far-reaching insights and effective interventions.
