Abstract

The purpose of this study is to elucidate the developmental process of transpersonal spiritual counselor. To achieve this, the study applied categorical content analysis, a method of life history research, to five representative transpersonal spiritual counselors in Korea. Four key categories emerged regarding their development as traditional and transpersonal spiritual counselor: 'Experiencing life's suffering and questioning the human mind,' 'Finding a path in psychology and growing as a counselor,' 'Undergoing the developmental process of a transpersonal spiritual counselor,' and 'Achieving a harmonious integration of traditional and transpersonal spiritual counseling.' Those categories included 3, 4, 4, and 3 sub-concepts, respectively. By addressing the relatively underexplored area of transpersonal spiritual counselor development in Korea, this study offers deeper insights into the unique developmental journey of transpersonal spiritual counselors and the lifelong process of counselor growth.
