Psychosynergy

Psychosynergy is a wide term used by psychologists, psychotherapists and healers in the Western and Eastern part of the world. The most general definition of the term is "theoretical psychology that is able to state theoretically the subject of its research" i.e. the human being and not only the subjective world of our human experience. Our subjective experience is one thing, we are creating it. That is why the main quest in psychosynergy is for the transition from the spiritual to the substantial and back. http://www.psych.ut.ee/5ibpc/abstract/03.html

Also, psychosynergy can be seen as an integrative form of psychotherapy in the context of personology. This way we can find another psychotherapeutic approach leading us to a better understanding of our human problems. This way psychosynergy was taught and practiced by Theodore Millon, PhD

"Coining the term psychosynergy (...) Millon has laboured for ove 35 years to resynthetize and integrate science, theory, classification, assessment, and therapy so that we will have a coherent system for understanding how people develop and live their lives, that is think, feel, behave, love, work, relate, become ill and get well" Handbook of Personology and Psychopathology By Stephen Strack John Wiley and Sons ISBN 047169312X

Finally,psychosynergy is used to describe a healing system based on the above theoretical approach. The system is aiming at creating the environment externally and internally in such a way that the human subject receives a multi-factorial energy healing both - psychologically and physically.

As we can see, the term has been used in many ways in order to describe the same human desire to know ourselves better and to help ourselves by the means of psychology, psychotherapy and science.
