A fair, just, sustainable and inclusive world through the application of Psychosynthesis principles.

To achieve our vision, PSP considers that diverse and appropriate opportunities need to be made available for people and communities to engage with the guiding principles and experiential processes of Psychosynthesis in a secure learning environment.

PSP principles are based on the vital importance of “context”. Thus all courses take a systems-thinking approach – a focus on the way that a system’s constituent parts interrelate and how systems work over time and within the context of larger systems – an evolving sensitivity to the circular nature of the world we live in.

PSP Trust offers practical and accessible psychospiritual training based on principles of Psychosynthesis for personal and professional development. This training can also inform and complement business, educational, health and social professionals.
The Trust also encourages the research of Psychosynthesis for the purposes of advanced personal development, counselling and psychotherapy.

PSP actively establishes supportive relationships to enable greater accessibility to our programmes and to provide support to students consistent with its charitable purpose.

Trustees

Up to seven trustees are appointed to direct the gouverance and strategic development of the Trust. These are people who have a close connection with Psychosynthesis and are devoted to deveoloping it’s practice in the South Pacific.

Council of Elders

Our Council of Elders provides additional advice and guidance in the strategic direction of the Trust. Recognising the place of Eldership, PSP envisages developing relationships with kaumātua (Māori elders) that will become integral to the Council of Elders.

Manager

Our manager looks after the day to day organisation of the Trust, from marketing to overseeing the trainings, generally making sure everyone is where they need to be, and keeping the trustees on their toes.

Administrator

Our administrator looks after a myriad of administrative tasks from communications and bookings to accounting.

Community

He aha te mea nui o te ao?
He tangata, he tangata, he tangata.
What is the most important thing in the world?
It is the people, it is the people, it is the people.
Maori Proverb

In Aotearoa/New Zealand, we recognise Maori as its first people, and we honour the particular spirituality that they express. We also recognise that participants from other lands have comparable deep wisdom traditions. We seek to welcome all people, and all the deep traditions from which they come, whilst recognising the uniquely local cultural expressions and particular flavour of the South Pacific. We seek to establish the rich holding of an inclusive multi-cultural community.

• Respect the cultural diversity of people and encourage people from all nationalities to utilize the Trust’s facilities and services.
• Heal through connections with self, other, natural environment, community, the greater whole.
• Provide pathways to further education and development, personal and professional, and inspiring people to reach their full potential.
• Work cooperatively in trans-disciplinary settings.
• Maintain the highest standards of professionalism and integrity.
• Respect and implement the dual heritage of the partners of Te Tiriti o Waitangi (the Treaty of Waitangi).
