Students have asked me how highly psychologists regard mind/body/spirit graduate programs. For example, the Institute for Transpersonal Psychology offers a doctoral program in Clinical Psych and the student was told it would soon receive APA approval. This is a program touting mind/body/spiritual development. I have mixed feelings about such programs, but my understanding is that they are programs that represent the legacy of humanistic psych and promote a diversity of meditative and spiritual perspectives. What advice would tipsters have for psych majors considering such graduate work? Are there any dangers, problems, or limitations to this Psychology career path? Are such programs well-respected academically? Would a holder of such a doctorate be a welcome addition to your department? Searching in spirit, Gary Gerald L.
