integral Psychotherapy Specialization<br />
The integral psychotherapy specialization is based on the All<br />
Quadrant, All Level (AQAL) framework of Ken Wilber and others.<br />
The content and pedagogy of this specialization is drawn from<br />
courses already offered in the MA degree in integral psychology.<br />
The integral psychotherapy specialization uses the AQAL Model<br />
as a framework for the study of psychotherapy and counseling and<br />
the inclusion of an Integral Life Practice.<br />
The integral specialization furthers the evolution of modern<br />
psychology by bringing the integrated perspective as articulated in<br />
the AQAL model. The AQAL model brings a multi-perspective<br />
and systematic view of psychology that recognizes the importance<br />
of the individual and collective subjective and the individual and<br />
collective objective dimensions of the human experience that are<br />
the four quadrants of mind, body, culture and systems. The model<br />
further recognizes the importance of developmental levels as well<br />
as lines of development. These developmental lines include<br />
cognitive, moral, and interpersonal among others. The model also<br />
recognizes the various states and types of consciousness that are<br />
aspects of the human experience.<br />
Having originally emerged from transpersonal psychology, integral<br />
psychotherapy includes the techniques for psychotherapy that have<br />
proven useful over the last 40 years, therefore students share many<br />
clinically oriented courses with the transpersonal psychology<br />
specialization. Integral psychotherapy also includes traditional,<br />
modern, and post modern approaches in an integrated and<br />
systematic way, using the AQAL model as its framework.<br />
The Integral Life Practice is also a unique aspect of the program.<br />
ILP consists of “modules” that are engaged by students to deepen<br />
their development and transformation both in terms of depth and<br />
breadth. The core modules include Body, Mind, Spirit, and<br />
Shadow. This ILP practice would take the place of the spiritual or<br />
somatic practice requirement in the transpersonal, somatic and<br />
holistic specializations.<br />
Clinicians with an MA degree in counseling psychology with a<br />
specialization in integral psychotherapy are uniquely suited to<br />
administer to a growing population of people interested in a more<br />
integral approach. By sharing courses with the students and faculty<br />
in the MA degree program in Integral psychology the students in<br />
the Integral psychotherapy specialization are engaged in an<br />
exchange of ideas and perspectives that furthers the important<br />
study of human consciousness and psychology.<br />
