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 />
