A Course in Miracles has its own form of psychotherapy—a complete approach to healing the mind rooted in its spiritual thought system. In this conversation, we explore the Course's approach to therapy, covering:

What the Course teaches about psychotherapy
Why therapy plays such a central role in its thought system
How it compares to approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Why the Course emphasizes changing perception over analyzing the past
The role of forgiveness in true psychological healing
What a "holy relationship" between therapist and patient really means

At its core, the Course's version of therapy is about shifting our emotional worldview—from fear, guilt, and defensiveness to a deeper recognition of innocence, safety, and love.

This episode is also a preview of our training: Miracle-Minded Therapy Level 1. If you're interested in learning more or participating, you can find details at this link: 👉 https://circleofa.org/therapylevel1

Whether you're a therapist, a student of the Course, or simply someone interested in healing, we hope this conversation offers a meaningful new perspective.
