About this Event

One day to find direction and map your path to breakthrough


This one-day Breakthrough Process Workshop is for a maximum of 8 people who are looking for a breakthrough on a work / life challenge.


Some examples of challenges might be: a career change, a difficult professional or personal relationship, a persistent behavioural pattern that prevents forward momentum, or simply feeling stuck.


Facilitated by The Breakthrough Process' multidisciplinary team of experts in psychotherapy, coaching and creative techniques, the workshop will help you to:


  • Define your current challenge
  • Identify what is preventing progress
  • ⁠Develop a meaningful plan for next steps


“The combination of group work, creative sessions and psychological guidance were very effective. By the end, I felt capable of moving forwards.”

Charlotte, Lawyer


What to expect

When we’re trying to overcome a challenge we tend to tackle it with the solution-focussed part of our minds. That’s an excellent tool for many tasks, but when it can’t find meaningful answers it can prevent us from seeing the bigger picture more clearly. Without seeing this, we tend to get trapped looking for a solution that can’t be found.


Based in the peaceful urban oasis of St Ethelburga's Centre in Bishopsgate London, we take you on a deep-level journey into your challenge, help you identify some of the psychological forces that underpin it, and support you to develop a solution-focussed plan for next steps.


By the end of the workshop, you will have developed:

  • Clarity on your challenge
  • Insight into emotional drivers
  • Newfound direction
  • Plan for next steps


More about The Breakthrough Process and our facilitators:

In 2018, psychotherapist and leadership coach Dr Tom Cotton founded Mind Environment to help individuals and leaders develop greater clarity on the unconscious forces that shape work and life in our fast-changing world. In 2025, Mind Environment became The Breakthrough Process.


The Breakthrough Process team comprises specialists in psychotherapy and coaching, leadership, entrepreneurship and business. Collectively, we have guided clients through life, work and relationship challenges, run successful businesses, and led change at the highest level of global organisations. This combined knowledge allows us to lead deep work safely, and helps you translate your breakthrough into an actionable plan.


Our tried and tested Breakthrough Process dives deep into the rational, emotional, and unconscious dimensions of your challenge, by combining four core elements:

  • Group discussion
  • Inner work
  • Creative techniques
  • Coaching


Combined, and facilitated with psychological rigour, these elements act as a force multiplier to provide rapid clarity on hidden obstacles and a realistic path forward in a compressed timeframe.


This one day Breakthrough Process Workshop provides a comprehensive grounding for participants who would like to join our five-day intensive Breakthrough Programme in France, where we provide the structure and facilitation for participants to arrive with a challenge, experience breakthrough, and leave with a plan for meaningful change.
