Re-authoring Identity through the Psyche-Myth Architecture: A Structured Framework for Transpersonal Psychotherapy

This conceptual paper introduces the Psyche-Myth Architecture and the Modular Myth Engine Live-action Dashboard, presenting a novel, structured framework for psychotherapy. Challenging the prevailing lack of systematization in transpersonal approaches, this model posits the human psyche as a foundational "inner architecture" built upon universal mythic and archetypal principles. The MMELD serves as a symbolic internal interface, empowering clients to consciously "deploy" Archetypal Operators, akin to selecting a video game skin, to navigate psychological challenges and drive profound change. The ‘video game skin’ metaphor is not meant to trivialize the process, but rather to offer a modern, accessible framing of inner role deployment. This methodology reframes therapeutic intervention as optimizing one's internal operating system, moving beyond symptom reduction or narrative re-telling. By offering a coherent, actionable, and gamified pathway to engage with the psyche's deepest structures, this model provides a robust framework for transpersonal identity work and aims to bridge the current gap in structured transpersonal therapeutic methodologies.© The Author(s) 2024.

Abstract

This conceptual paper introduces the Psyche-Myth Architecture and the Modular Myth Engine Live-action Dashboard, presenting a novel, structured framework for psychotherapy. Challenging the prevailing lack of systematization in transpersonal approaches, this model posits the human psyche as a foundational "inner architecture" built upon universal mythic and archetypal principles. The MMELD serves as a symbolic internal interface, empowering clients to consciously "deploy" Archetypal Operators, akin to selecting a video game skin, to navigate psychological challenges and drive profound change. The ‘video game skin’ metaphor is not meant to trivialize the process, but rather to offer a modern, accessible framing of inner role deployment. This methodology reframes therapeutic intervention as optimizing one's internal operating system, moving beyond symptom reduction or narrative re-telling. By offering a coherent, actionable, and gamified pathway to engage with the psyche's deepest structures, this model provides a robust framework for transpersonal identity work and aims to bridge the current gap in structured transpersonal therapeutic methodologies.© The Author(s) 2024.
