EBSC
The Deepest Level. The Simplest Access.
EBSC - Emotion-Based Self-Competence:
Work at the most fundamental level of human experience (the Self) with a structured, scientifically grounded approach.
What ist EBSC
One Method. Two Foundations. Infinite Possibilities.
EBSC combines the proven Self-Competence Model (five elements: Self-Awareness, Self-Acceptance, Self-Empowerment, Self-Care, Self-Esteem) with the neurobiologically grounded Two Basic Emotions Theory (Love-Fear Polarity).
The result: A structured method that unites therapeutic depth with preventive applicability. Not esoteric, but scientific. Not vague, but clearly structured. Not merely reactive, but preventively effective.
EBSC works where real change happens: in the Self.
Scientific Validation & Collaboration
EBSC is based on neurobiological foundations and has been validated with over 1,000 patients. We seek partners for clinical studies, research collaborations, and scientific publications.
The professional Handbook "The Emotion-Based Self-Competence Method: Foundations, Intervention and Application in Prevention and Therapy" was first published in January 2026 by Shaker Verlag published.
