Learn more →Metaphorical associative cards (MAC) are a set of cards with images, scenes and symbols that a psychologist uses as a projective tool. Looking at a card, the client describes what they see and unconsciously projects their own feelings, memories and inner conflicts onto the image. The card becomes a “bridge” to topics that are hard to put into words directly.
MAC are used in counselling, psychotherapy and coaching. They help build rapport faster, bypass rational defences and see a situation from a new angle. Subconscious Room brings this work online — with full card decks and live video contact with the client.
Working with metaphorical cards online feels as close as possible to an in-person session at the table.
The psychologist creates a session and sends the client a link — no software to install, everything runs in the browser.
You see and hear each other in real time, keeping a sense of live contact even at a distance.
In a shared workspace you open decks, draw cards, flip and zoom them, and discuss the images together.
At the end you discuss what came up together and summarise the work.
Run psychological games online — as vividly as at a real game table.
A transformational game is a psychological practice on a game board: participants move tokens, roll dice, draw cards and explore their own request through game situations. Subconscious Room brings these games online — with live video and a shared game board for every participant.
In the built-in game editor you assemble your own game: upload a board, add decks, tokens and dice with customisable faces. The game room hosts up to 5 players with video, 3D dice rolls, personal player card sheets and showing a card to everyone. Players join via a link from a computer, tablet or right from their phone.
Open the workspace and run your first online session with metaphorical cards.
