What is Psychosynthesis?
The Psychosynthesis approach to counselling takes the view that each of us has a purpose in life and that we have challenges and obstacles to meet in order to fulfil that purpose.
We are not in fact one person but various personalities and sub-personalities struggling continuously with each other; impulses, desires, principles and aspirations are often in conflict. Our essential task is to bring clarity into this confusion.
We find when the various elements of our being are in conflict, our energy becomes blocked, and this causes pain. However, each time that a synthesis of two or more parts of our personality occurs, energy is freed and we experience a sense of profound wellbeing. Our spirit becomes free.
This is the essence of psychosynthesis: the harmonious integration of all our component parts around a unifying centre (self). The tendency towards synthesis in inherent within us.
Psychosynthesis, rather than being an artificial imposition of techniques, simply unblocks and stimulates a process that is more closely allied to us than any other: becoming who we are.
Our role is to support each person in exploring their presenting problems, whilst seeing and reflecting back to each person our sense of their whole being, including their mental, emotional, physical and spiritual selves.
Psychosynthesis offers valuable techniques to support personal growth and to find the doorways to each individual’s potential, in the context of our complex and increasingly fragile world.
