About

Mind Mastery is a space for deep personal growth - especially for those who identify with schizoid personality traits, feel different or out of place, and find that mainstream mental health advice doesn’t speak to them.

We explore Jungian psychology, Gestalt therapy, developmental models, schema therapy, Eastern philosophies, and theories of consciousness to offer tools and perspectives for those seeking depth and authenticity.

This isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about helping your natural growth process unfold, so you can live more fully as yourself.

The mind, body, and spirit are always seeking balance and growth. Our role is to help uncover and support that process (even when it means navigating discomfort, mistakes, or uncertainty), because that’s where real change happens.

I’m Joanna Zbroniec - founder of Mind Mastery.

In 2013, I started a small YouTube channel talking about personality types, consciousness, and philosophy. My curiosity led me deep into Jungian psychology and the idea of the self-regulating psyche, which states that mental health challenges can be signs of important growth, not just problems to be solved.

Over time, Mind Mastery grew into a website, blog, and coaching practice for introverts, outliers, and depth-seekers. I eventually focused on supporting people with schizoid personality traits, offering 1-1 coaching, group programmes, an online course on dissociation, community workshops, and interviews with experts and people with lived experience.

My Background

  • MSc in Applied Positive Psychology & Coaching Psychology

A Personal Note

I’ve always felt different - too sensitive, too analytical, too much. For a long time, I saw that as a flaw. Now I see it as part of the unique lens through which I experience the world - the same lens that shaped Mind Mastery.

Many of the struggles I’ve faced are the same ones I hear from my audience: feeling unseen, misunderstood, or like life works differently for you than for everyone else. This project is my way of saying: you’re not alone in that. There’s nothing “wrong” with you. And there’s a path forward that honours who you are.

Although my main professional focus has shifted into business consulting for entrepreneurs and small business owners (check out jojoconsulting.biz if interested), I continue to keep Mind Mastery online as a free resource. The articles, videos, and courses remain available for anyone seeking understanding and tools for the unique challenges we explore here.

How It Started

Testimonials

  • David - Nevada, USA

    Working with Joanna has given me insights into my own limited perspectives, behaviors, attitudes, and ways of being that I would have never discovered on my own. Through her coaching I gained an understanding of myself and the schizoid experience that I could not have learned from all the numerous other sources I have read and studied. Joanna helped me to to develop a meta-awareness of my life experiences that now informs my entire world view. Having a professional coach who is so incredibly well-informed about and experienced with the schizoid phenomenon specifically is invaluable. Joanna is uniquely qualified in that area. I cannot over-emphasize the benefit of simply being able to talk to someone who truly understands the challenges (and strengths) of the schizoid adaptation. I am extremely glad I found Joanna and was able to work with her, and I highly recommend her as a psychologist and coach.

  • Jerzy Winiecki - Zabrze, Poland

    I really recommend working with Joanna. As someone who became very jaded towards any therapeutic work, for the first time I felt like I'm speaking with someone who understands and truly wants to get to the root of the issue. After only four sessions, I feel much more ready to face life's challenges, fully accepting and comfortable with who I am, and, at the same time, striving for positive change. Would recommend to anyone trying to find inner peace with the schizoid soul.

  • Scott Davies - California, USA

    Our coaching sessions aided my understanding of my inner conflicts. Joanna supported me during abstract reasoning of my personal challenges and development. While I was initially discouraged in the big picture, we zoomed into challenging areas in higher resolution, enough to see and discern my next steps.

    Joanna’s rigorous approach to open-mindedness has left an impression on me. I have newfound confidence and insight into my personal life. I would recommend working with her to anyone.

  • David Burke - Limerick, Ireland

    The main benefit with Joanna was becoming more mindful of myself and my personal ambitions. Joanna provided a great deal of insight to this for me, working with other people’s mindsets can’t be easy but Joanna gave me a clearer understanding of what my personal issues are.

    I found the information and feedback extremely valuable and I intend to revisit again.

  • Ehsan Darvishmoghaddam - N/A

    I've been working with Joanna for a long time now. I've been diagnosed with both Complex-ptsd and Schizoid personality disorder (SzPD) which were somehow severely impairing my life. Both my psychologist and psychiatrist have seen great improvements in me eversince. Joanna knowledge on SzPD is fascinating and I highly recommend her to you if you think you're suffering from impairing aspects of SzPD.
