What is transpersonal psychology? It is a combination of person-centered, humanistic, cognitive (CBT) approaches with a focus on the mind-body connection, mindfulness, philosophy, and spirituality. Transpersonal psychology suggests that your past history, your beliefs, life purpose, interests, values, and environment play important roles in your mental and physical well-being.
Transpersonal psychology assumes that relationships with others – past and current – are the key to understanding the way our minds operate.
In transpersonal psychology, the therapist isn’t viewed as the expert, but rather the facilitator that assists the client in uncovering their own truth and their own inner wisdom. The working relationship with the therapist, the feeling of safety, and trust are important parts of the therapeutic process.
Transpersonal psychology doesn’t judge others’ beliefs and experiences as right, wrong, correct or incorrect, healthy or unhealthy; they are all valid and may be different for everyone.
The client is encouraged to share their full experience in therapy so we can explore, grow, and learn together.
We acknowledge that we live and work on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) People.
