Experience a groundbreaking approach to transforming relationships with MDMA-assisted therapeutic strategies, delivered safely over the internet.

 

MDMA, often called ecstasy, represents a new frontier in mental health treatment and couples therapy. This emerging approach, part of the broader psychedelic-assisted therapy movement, promises a faster, more profound way to address relationship and psychological challenges...

... opening up a myriad of new possibilities for individuals and couples seeking help and forever changing therapeutic practice as we know it.

Often heralded for its profound ability to enhance feelings of empathy, connection, and emotional openness, MDMA is on a promising path toward decriminalization. It’s recently been legalized for therapeutic use in Australia, and the United States is on the cusp of legalizing MDMA for therapeutic use.

This shift towards MDMA and psychedelic-assisted therapies not only highlights a growing acceptance of alternative treatments but also underscores a significant evolution in how we approach mental and relational wellness.

Relationships are powerful teachers. They show us our strengths and our weaknesses, pushing us to grow in ways we might not pursue on our own.

Real love is one of the most desired qualities of life. Yet it’s all too easy for people to get stuck, often for long periods, in looping patterns, communication breakdowns, and defensive patterns with those they love.

Developing empathy and compassion to navigate disagreements or misunderstandings is key. Mutual understanding is essential.

But the question is: how do we get beyond our defenses to truly experience understanding and heal the wounds underneath?

In his nearly 40 years of working with couples, psychotherapist Jonathan Robinson, MA, MFT, shares that working with MDMA can create immediate changes for many couples that might otherwise take years. Again and again, he has guided what he terms “communication miracles.”

Jonathan is a leading figure in the field of MDMA-assisted couples work, renowned for an innovative approach that can be done remotely, and for his deep understanding of how to work with interpersonal dynamics in the context of a journey. His expertise is rooted in years of clinical experience and a deep commitment to helping couples navigate the complexities of their relationships.

Jonathan has noticed that every hurting couple does three things wrong in their communication: they blame, deny, and distract from the issue at hand.

Join Jonathan for an illuminating hour-long event where he’ll share with you this new paradigm in healing — and what’s happening with regard to countries moving to legalize this life-changing therapeutic modality.

These insights can be applied to your own healing journey in addition to your work with clients.

He’ll also guide you through a potent guided meditation and written exercise that will help you (or your clients) rapidly tune into feelings of goodwill and love toward a partner or a friend. And you’ll learn a technique to access these compassionate feelings in the future when circumstances of the moment may make them more difficult to access.

You’ll also discover key ways to avoid hurtful arguments that can permanently damage relationships.

 

In this eye-opening free online event, you’ll:

 
  • Learn quick and effective communication methods that can transform conflicts into opportunities for love and understanding
  • Discover the 3 common pitfalls in relationship communication — blame, denial, and distraction — and how to avoid them to build healthier connections
  • Learn a time-tested protocol that Jonathan has used for working with couples remotely using MDMA
  • Gain insights into Oprah’s secret to success in relationships — and how you can apply these principles to enhance your own connections
  • Participate in a guided meditation and writing exercise designed to deepen your feelings of love and appreciation for your partner or a friend
  • Understand the role of MDMA-assisted sessions in relationship improvement and maintenance, including its benefits and safety considerations
  • Receive information about our upcoming 8-month MDMA Couples Facilitator Training program
 
 
 

This workshop has the potential to be beneficial for everyone, including therapists who want to learn how to use MDMA to help couples and want to add this modality to their healing toolkit once it becomes legal... couples who are having trouble in their relationship or are on the brink of divorce... couples who simply want to improve and refresh their relationship... or single folks who have had a few painful relationships and want to heal their wounds and learn new skills.

As legal barriers begin to lower, thanks in part to rigorous research and advocacy by organizations like MAPS (the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies), you can be at the forefront of the therapeutic MDMA movement, helping couples (and yourself!) find a new avenue to deepen their relationships.

When you join us, you’ll also be among the first to hear about Jonathan’s brand-new 30-week MDMA Couples Facilitator Training program, in which he’ll take you on a deeper journey to learn precise therapeutic techniques designed to take yourself and your partner from anywhere you might be now...

... to a place of love and connectedness, where you can solve problems with love, as collaborative members of the same team.

“[Jonathan] was very clear and understandable and kept my interest the whole time.”

Training with Jonathan has been an amazing experience; I was sad when the course was completed. He was very clear and understandable and kept my interest the whole time. He answered all questions that were asked, even if it took the class overtime. Jonathan is kind, compassionate, funny, concise, and easy to speak to. I would definitely take courses with him in the future and I will refer people to his courses as well.
