Psychosynthesis

Uncovering your inner wisdom, connecting to your true self
About Psychosynthesis Therapy
Psychosynthesis therapy is a holistic approach to therapy
It is founded by Italian psychiatrist Roberto Assagioli in the early 20th century and was later developed further by other practitioners. It is based on recognizing a natural process—psychosynthesis—that we undergo throughout our lives. Our innate qualities and the new skills we acquire through life experiences are continuously synthesized into a new whole within our personality.

Understanding this process and consciously applying psychosynthesis practices can significantly deepen self-awareness and conscious self-navigation.

Psychosynthesis therapy offers a journey model that supports the quest for a more harmonious and meaningful life by exploring different parts and aspects of personality and engaging with one’s deepest truth. It empowers individuals to live with greater purpose and authenticity.

Psychosynthesis is also known for its theories of the stages of development of consciousness and the concept of subpersonalities (inner parts of ourselves), offering practical ways to resolve inner conflicts and harmonize our inner world.
We help with
Psychosynthesis therapy is particularly useful for those seeking not only symptom relief but also deeper personal and spiritual growth. It views psychological challenges as opportunities for integration and personal evolution, aiming for harmony both within oneself and in relationships. Issues are not treated in isolation but as part of the broader journey toward wholeness. For example:
Self-exploration with empathic and kind guidance can help navigate life changes and find meaning, fostering greater harmony with oneself and others.
Addressing inner conflicts between different parts of the personality and fostering inner harmony can lead to a reduction in anxiety and depression, while simultaneously promoting personal growth.
Establishing an empathic connection with the Inner Child and integrating wounded parts of the personality can support healing from childhood trauma, helping individuals cultivate more fulfilling relationships.
Exploring various aspects of the self, discovering your essential nature, and connecting with your authentic self can lead to liberation from many burdensome issues, including early survival patterns, all while contributing to a more integrated and balanced way of living.
How we work
At our practice, we approach therapy with an empathic interest in who you are, not who you "should" be.
We believe that every part of your life is part of your natural evolution and growth. We value and respect your boundaries and see our role not as one of authority, but as a guide accompanying you on your life journey.

We don’t view your challenges as resistance but as an expression of your will and needs. Ultimately, we are here to support you in discovering yourself and to facilitate your growth in a way that is meaningful to you.
