Maegan M. Kenney: Heart Conscious Healing Through Transpersonal Psychology

The concept of a “heart-centered self” has been explored in various disciplines, including psychology and spirituality. In psychology, the heart center is often associated with the fourth chakra, located in the center of the chest, and with love, compassion, and connection. Transpersonal psychology emphasizes the spiritual dimension of human experience, including personal growth beyond the individual ego. Intuitive healing and therapeutic astrology also draw on spiritual and intuitive dimensions of human experience.  

Maegan Kenney draws on these approaches to help individuals find their way back to their heart-centered selves, promoting self-awareness, healing, and transformation. Maegan is a transpersonal therapist, intuitive healer, and therapeutic astrologer who is dedicated to helping people find their way back home to their heart-centered selves. She is the founder of Third Realm Integration, a transpersonal coaching and consulting program that offers a pathway toward healing for those committed to doing deep personal work. 

Embarking on the Spiritual Journey 

Maegan’s journey began in 2010, after a series of challenging life experiences left her feeling desperate for relief. Feeling lost and disconnected, she turned to spirituality to find her way back to herself. Her search eventually led her to heart-centering meditation, which helped her connect with her inner self and find a sense of peace and purpose. 

Over time, Maegan realized that she was meant to be a healer and decided to pursue a career as a mental health counselor. However, she soon discovered that her perspectives on healing clashed with the Western mental health and medical system, leading her to explore alternative approaches to therapy. 

Discovering Transpersonal Therapy and Third Realm Integration 

Through her work as a psychedelic researcher and her training as a heart-centering meditation student, Maegan discovered the field of transpersonal therapy. Transpersonal therapy focuses on people’s mental, physical, social, emotional, creative, and intellectual needs by helping to activate their inner healing spirit and potential.  

At Third Realm Integration, Maegan offers a range of services to help individuals and groups access their inner selves and unlock their full potential. Her approach to healing is heart-focused, and she believes that the heart center is the space where true healing happens. 

Third Realm Integration is a transpersonal coaching and consulting program that uses a combination of depth, transpersonal, and existential psychology to offer a pathway toward healing for those committed to doing deep personal work. The program focuses on making the unconscious conscious by exploring the shadow aspects of ourselves that we hide from the outside world. Third Realm Integration uses heart-focused transpersonal techniques, such as meditation, breathwork, and astrology, to nurture expanded consciousness as the first step to healing.  

In addition to these techniques, the program offers various services, including conscious leadership coaching, archetypal exploration and integration, guided meditation and breathwork, energy clearing, plant medicine and psychedelic assessment and integration, and astrological coaching. Third Realm Integration works virtually with individuals and groups from all over the world, providing a unique and accessible approach to personal growth and transformation. 

Journeying Through Therapy Challenges 

Maegan also draws on the archetypal myths of the Hero and Heroine’s Journey to help clients understand the natural arch of human psychological development. By exploring these myths through guided imagery, meditations, and other exercises, clients can discover their journey and how to integrate the meaning of each stage. 

As a therapist, Maegan’s biggest challenge has been navigating the balance between empathy and compassion. While empathy can be a powerful tool for connecting with clients, it can also lead to projection and interfere with the therapeutic process. By cultivating compassion, Maegan can hold appropriate boundaries with her clients and provide them with the guidance they truly need. 

Finding Calm and Resilience in Turbulent Times 

In these uncertain times, Maegan believes that it is more important than ever to prioritize our own needs and establish healthy boundaries. By finding time for ourselves and connecting with our heart center, we can find a sense of calm and resilience in the face of life’s challenges. As Maegan helps individuals find their way back to their heart-centered selves, she encourages them to connect with their inner selves by stating, “Whatever we can do to heal the relationship we have with ourselves is how we find our way back home, maybe to a home we never knew.” Whether you are navigating the challenges of life or seeking to deepen your connection with yourself, Maegan can help you find your way home to your heart center.
