Spectrum of Psychotherapy from the perspective of Ken Wilber' s' Integral Theory
Rosendorfová, Johana ; Chrz, Vladimír (advisor) ; Tylš Adámková, Jana (referee)
In this theoretical thesis, I will first present my own condensation of the development of Ken Wilber's integral (structural-hierarchical) theory of the development of consciousness. In the second part, I compare Wilber's theory with psychodynamic theory, from which Wilber originally came. The main figure of comparison here will be Michael Washburn's concept of transpersonal development, which is anchored in a neo-Jungian approach. The comparison shows that one of the main distinguishing features of transpersonal theories is the topic of pre/trans fallacy and the location of the U-turn, i.e. the approach to the nature of the process of regression in personality development. In the last key part, I reflect on the possibilities of connecting the integral theory with psychotherapy and show that it is a theory that allows us to think systematically about psychological issues and psychotherapy directions. When analyzing the levels of consciousness of the integral theory, it turns out that the transitions between individual levels are points of a possible crisis of self. Psychotherapy can offer support and guidance, which can be specifically focused on the pitfalls in a given fulcrum. KEYWORDS integral theory, pre/trans fallacy, regression, development of consciousness, transpersonal psychology, psychotherapy
