The Person-centered Approach (PCA) is a well-established theory and practice of personal growth and interpersonal relationships, with applications in counselling, group work, education, organizational and cross-cultural behavior etc. This chapter seeks to enrich the approach in the light of Biosynergistic research and theory. It begins by laying the foundation for a Biosynergy-enriched Person-Centered Psychology (Be- PCP) that expands beyond humanism and acknowledges the Personhood of all organisms. To extend Personhood globally requires crafting a qualitative science of collective reality, an interdisciplinary/interspecies theory of Eco-spiritual well- becoming, and new synergistic core conditions to extend the reach and capacity of Person-Centered Interventions (PCI) beyond psychotherapy and social communion. On that biosynergy enriched foundation of PC-Psychology science, theory and intervention, the author constructs four pillars-of-biosynergy to demonstrate 1 new and 3 amplified Core Conditions for Be-PCP. Each pillar represents an essential Condition for enabling Global Well-becoming. The first three are biosynergistic elaborations of the original Rogerian therapeutic Conditions: 1. All Inclusive Positivity (AIP), 2. Mutually Empathic Compassion (MEC) and 3. Ecologically Adaptive Authenticity (EAA). The fourth pillar represents the author’s 4th Key Condition: 4. Global Creative Biosynergy (GCB). Normally represented by “wellbeing,” the term “well-becoming” is coined here to indicate that the vital quest for worldwide wellness is not merely “ being well in the moment.” Through Creative Biosynergy-enabled actualization, all Life – from cell to species, ecosystem to biosphere – pursues continually inclusive, mutually adaptive well- becoming. Finally, the case is made for Biosynergy as driving force in interspecies co- creation of Paradise on Earth – the rebecoming of Eden. Biosynergy may be the main mutual well-becoming process in EarthLife’s spiritual Quest for Transcendence.
