Claudio Naranjo

An internationally renowned Chilean psychiatrist, Claudio Naranjo was also a writer and lecturer recognised for his expertise and innovative vision. A pioneer in integrating psychotherapy with spiritual traditions, he devoted more than 40 years to the conception and development of the Enneagram of Personality, a powerful tool for self-knowledge. A passionate researcher and eternal explorer, he offered the world a brilliant synthesis of sometimes opposing realms: psychology, science, art and spiritual awakening. A pioneer shaped by multiple influences, he perfectly embodied the spirit of synthesis characteristic of the Renaissance man, involving a harmonious and dynamic balance between body, heart and intellect. He dedicated much of his life to helping others in their quest for transformation.
