Psychotherapeutic Approach: process oriented psychology

What is Process Oriented Psychology or Processwork

“Solutions and ideas lie within the difficulties themselves.”

Process Work is a method based on awareness that was developed by Dr. Arnold Mindell. It is a method that combines various psychotherapeutic approaches and, in this way, seeks to follow each person’s individual process. 

It is a holistic approach that does not judge your inner experiences as “wrong” or “problematic,” but rather seeks to understand them and find wisdom and solutions within the difficulties that arise in our lives.

This approach helps people become aware of and integrate more unknown aspects of themselves that they want to bring to the surface and experience more fully in their lives.

The method uses a variety of approaches to work with people, as its goal is to truly follow each person’s individual process.
