Methods and Approach
The integrative method rests on 30 years of experience with group work and individual therapy, meditation, and self-development. We view humans as complex individuals with unique needs and developmental potentials. Cultivating personality is initiated through a shared process of exploration, and will hereafter remain tools for personal development.
The course is experiential and based on your own personal material, providing practical tools for working with yourself and your relationships in the world on multiple levels. We call it an ‘apprenticeship in being human’.
The theories of Cybernetic Psychology, resting on a basis of systems- and information theory serve as a scientific base for The integrative Project, including key aspects of
- Psychodynamic approaches
- Jungian analytical psychology
- Resource-oriented body psychotherapy
- Gestalt therapy, and psychodrama
- Mindfulness and self-development meditations, inspired in part by Jon Kabat Zinn, Bob Moore and A. H. Almaas.
Methods are well documented and scientifically grounded in the works of Ole Vedfelt, as well as in the works of psychotherapists trained at the Vedfelt Institute, published internationally at highly esteemed publishing houses.*
