Practice Information
DREAMS are a creative way to work with the unconscious; to be creative means to bring something into being, and the unconscious is a source for that new being. We are not just what we know of ourselves. Our suffering has meaning and if we are struggling or in crisis this can be the catalyst for change. Carl Jung (1875-1961), tells us that "certain types of pain...are symbolically meaningful. This is one way the unconscious expresses itself." Our psyche is a part of nature and dreams come from that nature to speak to us in a metaphoric language. Jung explored the depths of the soul through dreams, art and mythology and emphasized the importance of the understanding of the psyche. Our psyche is a part of nature and dreams come from that nature to speak to us in a metaphoric language.
Our work together will be to explore these metaphors from your dreams, feelings, memories and reflections in a safe therapeutic environment. The result of our work is a deeper, more meaningful relationship with your authentic Self, others and the world. This greater relationship is the catalyst for healing, transformation and personal development.
My interest is in helping clients see themselves with compassionate eyes, and through this lens, help them move into a deeper understanding of their own psyche. Issues I work with are mid-life transitions, relationship and attachment issues, anxiety, depression, loss/bereavement, spiritual issues and emotional distress.
