Talk:Transpersonal psychiatry

Many

Many apologies, readers, but I have just seen the wiki-link I put to John Rowan takes us to wrong man. I know that there is a Wikipedia article on the psychologist of that name - does any one know how to get the wiki-link to the right man? Many thanks. ACEO 19:43, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Considerations for establishing this article as a topic separate from Transpersonal psychology

There is now sufficient literature to establish a separate article on Transpersonal psychiatry; defined as early as 1993 by Walsh and Vaughan and considered to be one of several Transpersonal disciplines (Walsh, 1993); later elaborated upon in the Textbook of Transpersonal psychiatry and psychology (1996); and even later; a special topic of Psychiatric Annals Vol. 29 (1999), and included in the American Psychiatric Association Course Guide in the 2000s. In the beginning Transpersonal psychiatry was closely associated with Transpersonal psychology, but the clinical work and perspective has now, in my view, established itself as a separate stream and is therefore more difficult to place within the concept of psychology. Recent developments have also brought the perspective of Transpersonal psychiatry in closer contact with the operations of the American Psychiatric Association. --Hawol (talk) 13:00, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

What clinical work? You have identified only advocates who think that this is a thing, but no independent notice of the claimed subfield. I see no indication that transpersonal psychiatry has separated itself from transpersonal psychology. Therefore I have instated a redirect to transpersonal psychology. jps (talk) 18:09, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
