My approach to psychotherapy is largely informed by the Analytical Psychology of Carl Jung. 

 

I believe in a theory of personal development that emphasizes the integration of all parts of the self into an experience of personal wholeness. This work is often referred to as "depth" psychology because it requires some degree of familiarity and/or curiosity about one's own inner-world. We may explore the symbolic direction of dreams, psychological complexes, relationship patterns, family of origin dynamics and/or dysfunction, personal self-concepts, trauma histories, spiritual sensibilities, identity issues, personal purpose, and the myriad of ways in which the psyche can express itself in the body. 

 

In addition to my formal academic training in counseling and analytical psychology, I have studied and practiced many other western and non-western healing modalities. I have worked with Peruvian and Lakota shamans, Tibetan lamas and Zen masters, contemplative Christian teachers, as well as body-workers and somatic psychologists in order to expand my capacity to hold space for the ways each of my clients may wish to include spirit and body in a psychotherapeutic process.

 

I believe that the best therapy outcomes arise from a healthy therapeutic relationship, and I work carefully with each of my clients to co-create a compassionate personal connection.
