Introduction to Self-Meaning Based Therapy® (SMBT)

Join us for a 60-minute live online webinar introducing Self-Meaning Based Therapy® (SMBT) — an integrative, depth-oriented clinical model designed to identify, dismantle, and transform one’s core negative Self-Meaning that unconsciously organizes emotional suffering.

This introductory session is ideal for clinicians, trainees, and helping professionals seeking a structured yet experiential model that moves beyond symptom management toward embodied and lived transformation.

Space is limited to maintain an intimate and interactive learning environment. Registration is required, and a Zoom link will be sent to registered participants prior to the event.

What This Webinar Will Cover:

Theoretical Underpinnings

• The core premise of SMBT: how Self-Meaning organizes psychological experience
• Developmental and attachment foundations of core negative self-meanings
• Psychodynamic, humanistic, sensory, and neuroscientific influences within the model
• How self-meaning structures become stabilized and defended over time

Clinical Application

• How to identify a client’s core, organizing Self-Meaning
• The structured process of dismantling this core Self-Meaning
• Case illustration demonstrating the SMBT process

Integration Into Your Practice

• How SMBT easily complements and seamlessly integrates with CBT, psychodynamic, trauma-informed, and other therapeutic approaches

Benefits of SMBT

For Patients:

• Greater clarity about the core Self-Meaning driving their suffering
• Reduction in repetitive relational patterns
• A more coherent and embodied sense of self

For Therapists:

• A clear organizing map for complex cases
• Increased treatment direction and depth
• Restoration of their deepest purpose by reconnecting them with why they entered the healing profession—transforming clinical work from symptom management into a profound act of witnessing, meaning-making, and liberation of the true self
