title: Personal mythology and psychotherapy: myth-making in psychological and spiritual development.
abstract: The sweeping changes and crises in the guiding myths of contemporary cultures provide the context of the individual's psychological and spiritual development. A five-stage process for facilitating the evolution of an individual's personal mythology is illustrated in a detailed case study, and the psychosocial tasks that must be accomplished to successfully navigate each stage are discussed.
