If you are a self-motivated learner who grapples with the challenges of our time and seeks to make a positive change in the world, this program is for you. Our program combines experiential learning with a serious academic inquiry and our graduates become transpersonal scholars, transpersonally-oriented therapists and healers, transformative educators, and change agents in various social and organizational contexts.

Coursework includes intensive inquiry in transpersonal philosophy, theory and research; a research methods sequence that prepares students for dissertation work on a chosen topic; and integrative and transformational educational experiences of community-building and applied learning through retreats and a community praxis sequence. This on-campus program provides the container for you to be a part of a diverse learning community.

Our program offers five concentrations:

Consciousness and Creativity Studies

Behavioral Science

Ecopsychology

Somatic Psychology

  • Research Methods in Psychology

Members of our faculty publish in diverse areas of inquiry including exceptional human experiences, consciousness studies, creativity, comparative religions, and the interface of cultural studies and transpersonal psychology. Our distinctive balance of scholarly study, experiential learning, and professional development supports the work of bringing transformational concepts and practices into the world in a manner that promotes personal growth, social change, and healing in a variety of settings.

Philosophers and scientists have explored the concept of consciousness for millennia, but only now do we know enough about the brain to make scientific progress on even the most basic questions. Of course much remains mysterious and probably always will. At the same time, everyone is familiar with the experience of heightened or expanded awareness and the concomitant feeling of greater connection with oneself and the wider world. Our Consciousness and Creativity Studies concentration is designed to provide a space for doctoral students to explore consciousness in its various dimensions while experimenting with spiritual technologies and creative processes that produce and are nurtured by it. Our exploration is rooted in academic inquiry, contemplative practices, entheogenic integration, and intersubjective encounters with members of our learning community.

The Behavioral Science concentration focuses on neuroscientific, behavioral, and cognitive psychology. In addition to these traditional topics, students are introduced to more innovative post-graduate disciplines such as neurotheology, neurophenomenology, and bioethics in the broader context of consciousness studies. Questions concerning neurological correlates of spiritual and religious experience and problems surrounding enhancement of the human brain through transformative technologies are also part of this concentration.

Ecopsychology approaches the human psyche as a phenomenon of nature and views all psychological and spiritual matters in the light of our participation in the life of the more-than-human world. This concentration explores the ways ecotherapy, environmental action, and ecologically responsible ways of life promote optimal mental health, well-being, and a sense of the transpersonal.

Somatic psychology addresses the challenges presented to people’s lives by the rupture between the world of knowledge and the world of lived, embodied experience. It focuses on the body as the place of evolutionary intelligence, learning, and transformation. Drawing on both Eastern and Western perspectives, this concentration explores interactions between body processes and states of consciousness through a transpersonal psychological perspective.

It is a research-oriented program dedicated to systematic knowledge-building and the advancement of transpersonal psychology. Whole-person psychologies expand the horizons of conventional Western psychology to include mystical and spiritual experiences that transform human consciousness. Our approach engages a comprehensive framework that includes the living systems of body, community, society, and the world as interconnected processes of evolution in a living, breathing cosmos. From this perspective, it becomes possible to ask new and compelling research questions that lie close to the heart of what it is to be human.

Graduates will be able to contribute their enhanced expertise in areas such as psychotherapy, counseling, teaching, writing, research, organizational or business consulting, and social change work.

Somatic psychology is a holistic approach to psychology that recognizes the inseparable connection between mind, body, and spirit. It acknowledges the profound impact our physical experiences have on our psychological well-being and emphasizes the integration of bodily sensations, emotions, thoughts, and actions to facilitate deep healing and personal transformation. The doctoral program in Somatic Psychology at CIIS offers students the opportunity to immerse themselves in the history, current issues, and future potentials of this remarkable field while learning how to integrate awareness of bodily sensations, movement, breath, and nonverbal communication into their clinical work and scholarly endeavors.

This research-oriented degree is designed for scholars and practitioners who have established somatic practices and want to develop new kinds of knowledge that emerge from these practices. Graduates will be able to contribute their enhanced expertise in areas such as psychotherapy, social work, counseling, teaching, writing, research, policy development, and social change work.

Exploring the Relationship Between Interoception, Mindfulness and Exceptional Experience

In this presentation, David Salisbury Brown Mitchell shares the finding of his study in which he and his colleagues conclude that meditation and meditative states of consciousness might be associated with increased reporting of exceptional experiences (ExE) otherwise known as unusual but not uncommon ways of experiencing the world, including experiences that are often labeled as “paranormal."

A Somatic History with Don Hanlon Johnson

In this delightful conversation on The Embodiment Podcast, professor Don Hanlon Johnson draws on his extensive well of experience and shares about his winding journey to becoming a Somatic Therapy practitioner. 

This is a part-time doctoral program, and the degree is structured so that students complete coursework in 3 years and then move to dissertation phase. Some students do complete in two years by accelerating the coursework. Usually, time to degree is 5.5 to 6 years. 

Students entering the Psychology doctoral programs share an interest in whole-person approaches to psychology such as humanistic, transpersonal, holistic, integral, somatic, contemplative, Jungian, and East-West. This typically includes the following:

  • Working professionals who wish to deepen their knowledge, advance their education, contribute to research, and bring greater meaning to their existing field of experience
  • Thought leaders and activists who wish to use their education as a foundation for consulting, writing, or teaching in the public sphere
  • Individuals who, after varied life experiences, are expanding their worldview into a more whole-person perspective
  • International students from diverse places seeking graduate training and a whole-person education

Although a master's degree is required for acceptance into the Psychology Ph.D. programs, the degree does not have to be in psychology. Students with an insufficient background in psychology may be encouraged to take one or more foundational courses in psychology from CIIS’ Integral Counseling Psychology or Psy.D. programs, or at another community college or university.

No, the Research Psychology with a concentration in Integral and Transpersonal Psychology and Somatic Psychology programs are not clinical programs. The programs do not prepare students for licensure as psychological counselors, psychotherapists, or clinical psychologists. However, the degree is designed to serve students who have earned master’s in counseling or psychotherapy. It is expected that some of these students will pursue further doctoral studies researching topics related to counseling psychology, such as integral psychotherapy, somatic psychology, expressive arts therapy, drama therapy, and community mental health.

Graduates from the programs are expected to continue working in their established fields as psychotherapists, social workers, psychologists, counselors, consultants, activists, organizers, leaders, teachers, researchers, nurses, physicians, lawyers, or in fields related to personal development, social change, or environmental protection. Some who are entrepreneurially inclined may use their education as the basis for becoming consultants, writers, speakers, or workshop leaders. A few may go into academic teaching or research and publication.

Yes, the programs are conducted primarily online, with two intensives per year, in-person in fall, virtual in spring.

Yes, the programs are designed for part-time attendance. However, to qualify for financial aid, you must take six units per semester.

Yes. The University provides various forums during which you can meet with a faculty member to discuss your interest, including the biannual CIIS open houses, as well as various info sessions.

Prospective students interested in visiting CIIS can schedule an appointment with an admissions counselor. Admissions counselors are happy to discuss academic interests and goals and provide materials and financial aid information. Please contact Admissions at [email protected] .

Government loans totaling up to $20,500 and various Institute scholarships are available. Additionally, some students are employed within the Institute as student workers (either for pay or tuition exchange). It is best to speak directly with a financial aid officer to understand the specifics, and to request that financial aid information be sent to you.

The Research Psychology department allows a maximum of six semester units to be transferred into the Ph.D. program. However, applicants with an insufficient background in psychology may be required by the Admissions Committee to take additional psychology courses as prerequisites. Students with previous doctoral coursework may request to transfer up to 6 units. The program chair reviews requests for transfer units.
