Most of us often encounter events that leave us questioning whether or not they are the the result of pure coincidence. Psychologist Dr. Kirby Surprise has written a book called Synchronicity: The Art of Coincidence, Change, and Unlocking Your Mind, in which he explains the ways in which we influence events and their meanings. It is his belief that we can discover how our minds create our reality, unlock vast resources of connectivity and creativity, and change from living as separate beings to living within a unified whole.

Dr. Kirby Surprise received his Doctorate in psychology in 2007 from the institute for Integral Studies in San Francisco, his masters in psychodynamic and transpersonal psychology from John F. Kennedy University in 1988. Dr. Surprise received his license as a psychologist in 2009, and currently works in an advanced outpatient program for the state of California. The inspiration for his current writing comes from his lifelong experiences with synchronistic events and interests in psychology, metaphysics, philosophy, history and science. Surprise is his original family name, and he has received more than a few interested comments on the coincidence of a book on synchronicity written by a psychologist named Dr. Surprise. He and his family currently live and work in the San Francisco bay area.
