Psychotherapy

I work with all ages from teens on up to seniors. I do not work with children as this requires a different methodology that I am not trained in. I do, however, offer Somatic Movement Therapy and Education for children.

 

What is my method for therapy?

Though Jungian-Archetypal Psychology is the main influence of the way I work, I have also learned from many other sources and take my resources from many fountains, including mythology, Mindfullness, shamanic traditions, storytelling, rituals and Transpersonal Psychology. As I am also trained as a Somatic Movement Therapist, this naturally deeply colors my work as a psychotherapist.

 

The session is conducted in a warm, intimate, safe and welcoming studio in an open country setting, which acts as the container for the work that is to be done. Myself and the client are seated face to face as equals.

The Wikipedia article about Archetypal Psychology is actually very relevant and I would recommend that anybody who is interested in an overview should read it (click here to read it). Here is an excerpt that is relevant to the way I work:

​

"Archetypal Psychology relativizes and deliteralizes the notion of ego and focuses on what it calls the psyche, or soul, and the deepest patterns of psychic functioning, "the fundamental fantasies that animate all life" (Moore, in Hillman, 1991). Archetypal psychology likens itself to a polytheistic mythology in that it attempts to recognize the myriad of fantasies and myths - gods, goddesses, demigods, mortals and animals - that shape and are shaped by our psychological lives. In this framework the ego is but one psychological fantasy within an assemblage of fantasies. Archetypal psychology is, along with the classical and developmental schools, one of the three schools of post-Jungian psychology outlined by Andrew Samuels."
