What happens when the soul knocks on the door of the psyche?
In this episode, Anja and I explore the transformative power of transpersonal psychology in therapy. We discuss how spiritual experiences, longing, and crises of meaning can be honored and integrated without pathologizing them — even in clinical or secular settings.
We dive into: • How to recognize a spiritual emergence in clients • The difference between personal and transpersonal will • Working with subpersonalities and spiritual longing • The challenge of ego vs soul in personal development • Why psychosynthesis is uniquely equipped for this integration
Whether you’re a therapist, seeker, or simply curious, this conversation offers a grounded yet expansive approach to wholeness and healing.

Psychosynthesis, Faith & the Infinite: A Soul Journey with Catherine Ann Lombard
This is the first part of my conversation with Molly Young Brown — a dear colleague and one of the early voices of psychosynthesis in the U.S.
In this enriching conversation, I’m joined by Roger H. Evans,co-founder of the Institute of Psychosynthesis in London and one of the early pioneers of transpersonal psychology in Europe.
In this conversation, I sit down with psychosynthesis psychotherapist Anja Bjørlo to explore one of the most pressing issues of our time: the impact of social media on our sense of self. Together, we examine how the constant pressure to present a polished, idealized version of ourselves can create deep anxiety, inner conflict, and disconnection from our true nature. We discuss the concept of the “survival personality” and how early conditioning shapes the masks we wear to gain acceptance. Through the lens of psychosynthesis, we offer a path toward reclaiming your authentic identity—one rooted not in likes or external validation, but in the loving observer within.
In this rich and soul-stirring conversation, I sit down with Michael Lindfield, President of Meditation Mount, to explore the inner foundations of psychosynthesis, creativemeditation, and the evolving legacy of Roberto Assagioli.
