As a veteran mental health therapist, I have tracked with the resources offered by both Dr Caroline Leaf and Dr Jim Wilder.  Both of these amazing professionals offer Christian therapists information about how to connect our relationship with God with our understanding of our neurological wiring as humans.  In my opinion, the basic breakdown between Dr Leaf of the Neurocycle Institute and Dr Wilder of Life Model Works is that one is more technical in nature and the other is more relational.    My name is Monica Mouer, and I am a licensed therapist and supervisor as well as the director of the Center for Transformation.  We exist to resource therapists with skills for personal growth that leads to professional outcomes.  We have discovered that the implementation of the Life Model in our lives as therapists has led to more fulfillment in our personal life and relationship and amazing insight and growth in the lives of our clients as we model and teach these practices to them.  This episode discusses Dr Wilder's Life Model (neurotheology) and Dr Leafs (Neurocycle Institute) as both are skills based training programs for rewiring your brain.  Both of these programs involve the latest neuroscience research and combining it with our connection to God.  For me personally, I have found my home with the Life Model.  I find that the depths of insight and strategy for self growth, relational growth and spiritual growth are unprecedented.  There is a sense that the Life Model is the gift that keeps on giving.  The information continues to unpack itself as it is learned and practiced.  The pay off of the Life Model practice is amazing as joy, peace and love is increased more and more over time.  Check out our website at www.cftinstitute.com or join us on our podcast The Place for Therapists to Grow on both Spotify and Apple.  You are also welcome to follow us on LinkdIn, Instragram and Facebook as CFT Institute/Monica Mouer Counseling.
