I have been a friend of Meridian University for many years. Meridian is friendly, intelligent, intense, complex, and perfectly focused. It provides an education which is counter to trends, feeds the soul, and pleasures the intellect.
–Thomas Moore
Psychology may be viewed not only as an academic discipline but also as a vocation and profession. Meridian University's psychology curriculum is distinct in several ways:
1) Psychology at Meridian draws on several diversified orientations to psychology that have emerged during the mid- to latter part of the twentieth century, including:
- Depth Psychology
- Humanistic Psychology
- Transpersonal Psychology
- Somatic Psychology
- Spiritual Psychology
- Ecopsychology
- Energy Psychology
2) Psychology at Meridian seeks to reclaim the soul as the primary concern of psychology, accessing soul as it is known to us through the imagination,
3) Psychology at Meridian draws on numerous knowledge domains that provide significant psychological knowledge, but that are not a recognized part of the conventional discipline and profession of psychology.
4) Psychology Program Graduate Degrees:
