Transpersonal Therapy
Transpersonal Psychology is a transformative approach to psychology that honors the whole person in intimate relationship with a diverse, interconnected and evolving world.
As transpersonal counselors, we honor the full range of the human experience, from the experience of waking reality to dreamwork to the most abstract of spiritual phenomenon - with the belief that any experience is to be believed and appreciated as a gift to unravel curiously.
Transpersonal Psychotherapy recognizes that there is much to explore in the unknown realms of human consciousness and pays special attention to spiritual, mystical, mysterious and transcendent experiences. At Syzygy, we create a supportive and reflexive container utilizing somatic, expressive and transpersonal modalities to help integrate the unique and pivotal moments of your human experience.
The meaning of the prefix trans in Latin is “to go beyond to change.” The prefix persona in Latin means “mask.” In combining trans and persona, we can determine that transpersonal means experiences that go beyond the sense of ego identity and expands into other states of consciousness, including an understanding of ourselves and our position in the universe, connection to our heart-centeredness and intrinsic worthiness, access to the collective unconscious, oneness with the natural world, and experiences of unity.
At Syzygy, we see Non-Ordinary States of Consciousness as catalysts for transformation. Transpersonal experiences can range from incredibly profound to destabilizing for some. It can be fruitful to seek therapy to integrate these significant shifts into ordinary life. Integration of these experiences help braid the sacred into our daily lives for the benefit of us all.
