The results of numerous surveys have shown that Exceptional Experiences (ExE) form part of the body of human knowledge. From both historical and transcultural perspectives they are quite common. Although the majority of individuals, who have these experiences can integrate them in their view of the world and the self, some others develop irritations and alienations that require competent treatment. However, the traditional medical and psycho-social health-care system so far hardly offers any competent help. Although the necessity for a specific information and counseling service in the field of parapsychology has been increasingly recognized over the last twenty years, professional counseling services that deal with such experiences are still extremely rare even among the representatives of scientific parapsychology (Solvin, 1995). The situation is even worse when we look for relevant approaches in clinical parapsychology that meet the standards for Empirically Supported Treatments (EST) as is required for other areas of counseling and psychotherapy. This article is conceived as a contribution on the way to meeting these EST standards in clinical parapsychology (CPP). Therefore, we review the relevant empirical data that we have gathered so far about the psychological functioning of individuals reporting ExE and/or having a paranormal belief system as well as the data about the phenomena themselves. They will be integrated into a specific model for counseling and psychotherapy for persons who experience ExE.
