Scientific Research and Colleagues
Working with the world’s best experts in psychology and neuroscience
Metacognitive Programming™ is a proprietary blend of neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and ontology to help our clients and students unlock their full potential.

At IMCP, we guide our clients and students to realize the truth about who they are and connect to the source of power and fortitude.

Having studied these topics for over 20 years, our founder Misha Saidov, could not have done it alone.

Therapeutic Frameworks Behind Metacognitive Programming
And many more
  • Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)
However, coaching is not the same as therapy. The primary goal of an MCP coach is to transfer skills through education and direct recommendations to guide the client from a tolerable life ("Day 0") to a better one ("Day 1"). The goal of therapy is to move from a state of suffering to a point/day 0, a neutral equilibrium. Both modalities work well together.
  • Schema Therapy
Coaching vs. Therapy
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
  • Psychodynamic Therapy
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
