The Immanuel Approach helps licensed mental health professionals and ministry leaders apply several simple brain science principles to help their willing Christian clients establish an interactive, contingent connection with the living, tangible presence of Jesus and then coaches the client to engage directly with Jesus as the primary therapist. Interestingly, Jesus routinely facilitates complete memory-reconsolidation resolution of traumatic memories. This workshop will summarize the theoretical foundation for the Immanuel Approach, describe the process for basic Immanuel Approach work, discuss several aspects of the Immanuel Approach that are new and unique, and then present case studies that illustrate the effectiveness of the Immanuel Approach. The case study presentation will include video from an actual session in which the client experiences Jesus facilitating therapeutic memory reconsolidation.
