Abstract	The following inquiry asks the question: "What is the experience of transformation using imaginal knowing in counseling education?" Inspired by personal experience of transformation through education, the author engages this question by exploring others' experience of imaginal knowing in the context of a core-curriculum graduate-level counseling course. This course incorporates a 10-week artmaking process aligned with the school's transformative learning pedagogy.A modified a/r/tography methodology within a phenomenological paradigm was employed to effectively convey the richness and complexity of the lived experience. Using this innovative methodology integrating multiple modes of presentation, the author weaves her therapist identity with elements of narrative research and a/r/tography, thus creating a novel "a/r/T/tography" research method fulfilling the iterative and emergent spirit of arts-based research and written with a capital "T" to highlight this unique modification to the well-established a/r/tography body of literature. This approach illuminates students' narrative experience of transformation, incorporating a researcher created one-canvas art process as a research text. Ten licensed therapists who completed an Archetypal Psychology course during graduate school were invited to share their artwork, participate in an interview, create art in response to the interview, and offer reflections on the author's one-canvas process, shared as a video presentation. From this, five representative narrative vignettes are offered to exemplify diverse paths of personal transformation within an educational setting centering on imaginal knowing. A transdisciplinary dialectical process of evocation, elucidation, artistic expression, and reflection created new opportunities for meaning making for participants and researcher within the hermeneutics of creation. The integration of narrative research, thematic analysis, observation of participant artwork, the researcher's one-canvas process, and participant responses revealed five significant themes: (a) new insight and understanding emerged from discussing past artwork; (b) artmaking provided an avenue for self-awareness, growth, and professional development; (c) a supportive learning environment was essential; (d) validating attunement with the interviewer facilitated integration of experience; and (e) transformation through imaginal knowing is fluid, dynamic, and ever-evolving. This research acknowledges the need for innovative solutions to education in modern times, benefits the field of counseling education, and expands arts-based research methodologies.
