PSY6605 - Introduction to Integrative Psychology

(2 units)

Systems of psychology are tied indelibly to the history of ideas and social contexts. This course covers past and current social, scientific and ethical ways of knowing. A willingness to see the truth in different traditions, through different value systems, different perceptions of reality, different forms of relationships, different spiritual paths- and to see this diversity enhancing all our lives-is a postmodern value. A postmodern psychology, inclusive of these diverse ideas about identity, values and health, would be an integrative psychology.
