Training Philosophy

Cultivating an Inner Space

This is more than just a professional training. It is for people whose purpose is to work with, support, and empower human beings.

It is an invitation to become a space for deeply profound transformation — beginning with yourself — through the pioneering approach of Transpersonal Psychotherapy.

The course follows an integrative approach, teaching therapeutic techniques, diagnostic and theoretical models, embodiment practices and healing nutrition. These constitute the building blocks of our training. In parallel to these, students will be cultivating an inner space to come from when working with clients.

EUROTAS-accredited, this transpersonal psychology degree is recognized across Europe and structured to meet international standards for transpersonal practice.

Who This Is For

  • Are you interested in a pioneering approach to psychotherapy?

  • Do you want to understand who you are beyond the patterns, habits and conditioning that unconsciously shape your life?

Our story

One school, East and West

The school was founded in 2021. It began with its Eastern programme (2021–2025), rooted in Moldova and Eastern Europe, and was followed by the Western programme (2024–2027).

For 2027–2030 the two sides come together. The online lectures are shared: one international community, learning side by side, taught by the same faculty from East and West. Lectures are delivered in English, with automatic translation available for Russian-speaking students.

The in-person intensives are held separately — in English for the Western track and in Russian for the Eastern track. Where a seminar is offered to both sides of the school, we provide translation. The two tracks are not sealed off from one another: with prior arrangement you are welcome to attend an intensive on the other side of the school.

Studied with us before? Everything from the earlier cycles — and the site you remember — is still online at old.transpersonal-training.com.

The programme

Program Overview

Our postgraduate program in transpersonal psychotherapy training represents a holistic approach to developing professional competence in transpersonal psychotherapy and Holotropic Breathwork. This program is designed not only for mental health professionals, educators, and practitioners, but also for those interested in self-development, seeking to deepen their understanding of transpersonal psychology.

Transpersonal psychotherapy training integrates contemporary research in psychology with wisdom traditions, creating a comprehensive framework for understanding human consciousness, transformation, and healing. Our approach to holistic therapy acknowledges that self-development is not exclusively about symptomatic relief. Rather, it is about truly understanding what it means to be human, fully integrating all our humanity, a process of maturation from the wounded child so we can live from a space of freedom.

  • Willingness to engage in personal therapy and supervision as part of professional formation
