Welcome to Perspective Psychology.

Many of us are led to believe that there is one truth. One “ultimate” Reality or “Truth.” We all have spent our lives trying to fit ourselves into this one Common Ethic and Belief that governs our entire Society.

In actuality there are 8+ Perspectives (according to the work of Psychologist, Dr. Graves, who introduced this theory in Spiral Dynamics during the 1970’s… which Traditional Psychologists shelved and never looked further). Perspective Psychology is my forte, and I am its founder, developing my theories and work decades before finding Dr. Graves’ work on Spiral Dynamics.

Every instance of abuse is actually a dispute over who’s perspective is “correct,” from small contradictions or disagreements to sexual and/or physical assault and name calling.

Undergoing Perspective Abuse results in a number of messages mastered and integrated by your Subconscious Mind:

  • “It is not safe to be different.”
  • “It’s not safe to be visible.”
  • “It is not safe to grow.”
  • “It’s not safe to talk.”
  • “It is not safe to be myself.”
  • “It’s not safe to be around people.”

This lack of safety results in a divide between Your Identity and Your Subconscious Mind. Suddenly, you are not aligned with yourself. As we grow older, our Perspectives are supposed to change, but most of us were taught that only the Perspectives of our parents is acceptable or tolerated.

Conditional Lifestyles, “Conform or you lose your shelter, food, safety, security, acceptance,” grooms us for a life of Conditional Belonging and Conditional Love.

Most Parents have a perspective locked in at the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th Perspective.

  • 2nd Perspectives abuse with Religion and Traditions.
  • 3rd Perspectives abuse strategically with Forced Perspectives, Sexual Control, and physical Violence.
  • 4th Perspectives (The Common Perspective), abuse with politics and “following the rules” and making sure you get a 9-5 job.

But, you are most likely an Ethical 5th Perspective or an Ethical 6th Perspective who was forced to adhere to “Societal Norms” or your Parent’s desires for you. Transgender People are 7th Perspectives who can See beyond Gender Labels.

What results is your Identity being stifled, suppressed, and your growth restricted while your Subconscious Mind stays “stuck” at the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th Perspective. Around you, the Environment reflects the Perspective with the most Authority, forcing you to live in a situation where you may be a 6, your subconscious mind is a 3, but your Environment is a 4.

Your “Combination” in this example is 5-3-4. If you were aligned, your combination would be 5-5-5. The mis-alignment causes an emotion called “Cognitive Dissonance.” The more you are misaligned, the greater the pain.

Traditional Psychologists know about Cognitive Dissonance, but little to no interest is made on this emotion that is the core of human suffering and emotional pain. It’s importance is downplayed in Traditional Psychology.

Why knowing your Combination is important

Sanity is knowing who you are and your relative location in the world. Reality is how you define your reality based on your Perspective. Mental Illnesses occur when, through the act of Perspective Abuse, your Identity and your relative understanding is taken away from you, losing your perception of reality.

Read that again.

Knowing your combination does three things:

  • It identifies the problem and defines who you are.
  • It tells you where you are (Your Subconscious Mind keeps you where you are)
  • It tells you where you want to be (Your Ethical Perspective)
  • It tells you how much your Alignment is off so you know how much work you have ahead of you.

Perspective Psychology cures Mental Illness by restoring your Identity, Your Relativity, and your perceived reality, which results in a Mental Environment where your Toxic Beliefs and Mental Illnesses cannot exist (This is what I cover in my Masterclasses).

Finding Your Coordinates

The 8 Perspectives are stages of growth that we all advance through as we grow. Most people stall out around the 4th Perspective. It is usually then that most people stop growing. The 4th Perspective is the Common Perspective. The Perspectives are all defined by the following:

  • 1 – Where your Autonomy is as far as Value and Importance goes.
  • 2 – Who has Your Authority
  • 3 – Your priority on The Environment
  • 4 – How you Define and relate to “A Supreme Being”
  • 5- How you Relate to Others

Wishing you were at a higher Perspective just means that you value Growth over Comfort. It does not mean you are at that Perspective. These Perspectives are the Stages of Growth. You cannot skip a Perspective. When left alone to develop as Nature intended, by the time we are 8 years old, we would be in the 8th Perspective, capable of self-governing our own lives through the use of Ethics.

Just to give you some Perspective on how badly our parents fucked us up.
