In this episode of the Neuroscience Informed Christian Counseling podcast, we dive into the strategic use of Humor as a therapeutic tool, a core skill introduced in the NICC Basic Training course. Humor, when used judiciously, can strengthen the therapeutic alliance, disarm defenses, and neutralize shame, creating a safe space for participants to engage in deeper emotional work. Whether it’s building rapport, easing tension, or offering a new perspective, humor brings lightness to the therapeutic process, helping participants feel seen and understood.

Learn how humor can regulate the nervous system, create moments of relief, and transform tense situations into opportunities for growth and connection. This episode also explores the high-risk, high-reward nature of humor and the importance of timing, cultural sensitivity, and attunement to the participant’s emotional state.
