Abstract
Here some of the basic ideas assembled under the recently coined term chaos theory are applied to the process of psychotherapy. Utilizing some ideas from chaos theory, "chaos" is defined in psychological terms as a state of overwhelming anxiety and is interpreted as the first indication of potential psychological growth. The concepts of Analytical Psychology and the modality of sandtray therapy are used to illustrate the type of therapeutic approach this theoretical work proposes in the transcendent cycle. Psychotherapy simply facilitates a transformation, wherein clients are guided through the chaos they are experiencing so that they may grow beyond their current psychological limitations.
