The purpose of this paper is to introduce transcendental counseling as a Christian counseling theory and to examine the possibility of integrating Kohut’s self–psychology into Christian counseling from transcendental counseling perspective. Transcendental counseling theory introduces new concepts of actual self, objective self, scope expansion, scope estrangement, scope substitution, scope division and clinical characteristics. In this study, integrated elements are examined by comparing and contrasting transcendental psychology and self–psychology. This work helps the understanding of the two theories’ essence as well as human understanding, effective clinical work, and setting the foundation for Christian counseling’s identity establishment. This study concludes that the transcendental theory can have dialogue with general counseling theories while maintaining theological attention and confirms the possibility of integration by presenting the transcendental theory’s common and parallel concepts with the self–psychology theory by some parallels between the transcendental theory and the self psychology theory.
