In this complimentary Author Spotlight conversation, Patrick J. Mahaffey joins us for a depth-psychological dialogue on his recent book.

Individuation and Beyond is a profound exploration of the psychospiritual journey toward wholeness and awakening. Drawing on over five decades of academic study, spiritual practice, and teaching at Pacifica Graduate Institute, Dr. Patrick J. Mahaffey interweaves insights from process relational theology, Jungian depth psychology, the Diamond Approach, contemplative yoga traditions, and integral philosophy. The book invites readers to engage deeply with their inner lives by examining the worldviews and God-images that shape meaning and identity. He proposes a form of integrative spirituality—a path that unites psychological wholeness with spiritual realization. More than a synthesis of great ideas, this work is a guide for the modern seeker—a mandala of perspectives designed to illuminate the divine within the human. Each chapter concludes with reflection questions and practices that encourage experiential engagement, making the book both intellectually rigorous and personally transformative.
