Institute Activity

Research Institute of Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy performs the research in four main branches:

1. Psychology of personality, transpersonal and impersonal psychology

   The goal: to find the resources for individual’s spiritual growth. Among others these are: heredity, environment (ecology of the physical world and cultural values​​), perinatal and early childhood periods of development, attitude of mother’s parents to her pregnancy and the process of delivery itself. All these factors form our destiny.

   All these factors, including the genetic predisposition, can be processed to improve the quality of person’s life.

   — We reveal and formalize the typical reasons of personal and social disharmony.

   — We research both the psychology of vital (self-preservation, self-reproduction, self-maintenance) and higher human needs (self-actualization, the need for the perfect knowledge, self-knowledge), that determine his/her life quality.

   — We also research the collective unconscious and the personal dissociation area. The social interest for the personal dissociation has been recently significantly increased. The personal dissociation is the detachment phenomenon of the main personality to the range of dissociated personalities that are able to adopt a person for the existing environmental circumstances. It happens both in normal and pathological state. But the pathological personal dissociation (i.e. structural, affective dissociation) drastically decreases the person’s adaptiveness and can seriously slow down his/her personal growth and development.

   Our research helps us develop methods to eliminate the deeper problems, decrease the outer influence on person’s life, learn for self-creation of the comfortable reality and reach the higher level of self-actualization.

2. Life quality programs development

   Developing the programs to increase the life quality includes the lecture materials on actual subjects of psychosomatics, physiology, dietetics anatomy, personal hygiene, family relationships and the ways for adaptation to the surrounding reality. Group lectures include learning the physical exercises that are necessary for keeping the healthy level of spine, joints, cardiovascular and endocrine systems.

   The goal: develop the method to restore and reinforce physical health as well as to create the comfortable relations in one’s microsocium.

3. Perinatal psychology and medicine

   This rather young branch of science researches the ways to eliminate the negative programs for perinatal period of human development, right after his/her birth. We develop methods to fight infertility and miscarriage. We also prepare women for the safe delivery. We correct the genetic predisposition to such diseases as hypertension and hypotension, diabetes, schizophrenia, etc.

4. Clinical psychology

   We research the psychological diseases in the view of cardiovascular system, musculoskeletal system and endocrinology. The results of our researches helped to create the care programs for prophylaxis and auxiliary treatment of such diseases as vegetative-vascular dystonia, hypertension, arterial hypotension, ischemic heart disease and angina, Hypo — and hyperthyroidism, disorders of the genitourinary system, infertility, low back pain, arthritis, periarthritis, arthritic joints, kyphosis, lordosis, scoliosis, and more. Such programs not only eliminate the pathological sympthoms but also make positive changes in person’s character and personal structure.
