Introduction
PhD by research via Distance Learning is awarded after successfully completing a theoretical research specialization. This research is presented in the form of a doctoral thesis.The PhD (Doctor of Philosophy) is the only doctoral degree that can be achieved through distance learning.The main requirement for a PhD online through distance learning is to present and discuss a thesis of at least 100 pages for review and evaluation by an academic committee at Selinus University.
A thesis project for this PhD should explore the fundamental themes of therapies, such as listening and intervening in psychological disorders from multiple perspectives. If necessary, support it using herbs, homeopathy and floral remedies. Through the study of different theories and research, the candidate learns how to realize multiple perspective interpretations and develop their own therapeutic approach. Natural psychotherapy is not based on "rapid psychiatric pharmacological correction" therapies of exclusive medical openness. Rather, it focuses on obtaining permanent results by integrating the patient's neurophysiological and mental processes at a natural healing rate. This program allows students to analyze a conflict, interpret the corresponding problem and offer the best possible solution.

Thesis Defence
Considering that APUW students come from all over the world, often miles away from the university headquarters, the Doctor PhD degree via distance learning thesis can be defended in three different ways:
- Written Defence: the student develops his/her defence in a 5 pages report;
- Oral Defense: (recommended) the student sends an audio or video file (at least 30 minutes duration) containing his/her defence;
- In presence: speaking in front of two/three professors of APUW University. The student sets a date with the Secretariat to defend his/her thesis in the APUW headquarters.
