If you’re feeling like you don’t belong, then you’ve nearly found yourself. Our society keeps us fragmented from ourselves. Our days are overfilled but somehow we’re left empty; we’re constantly socializing, yet we feel lonely. We are starving for acceptance and connection, for someone to listen and understand. Maybe you feel out of place and overwhelmed. Maybe you’re standing alone against the insurmountable and need a safe place to rest. Or maybe you can’t find your guiding light and the world feels dark. If you’re having these experiences, I want to be there with you, to connect with you.

I have been trained in a unique approach called Process Work, developed by Dr. Arnold Mindell. Process work is a dynamic and transformative approach which uses Jungian psychology, Taoism and physics. It offers new ways of working with problematic or painful experiences. Relationship challenges, physical symptoms, career conflicts and social tensions are approached with curiosity, respect and creativity. In using process work, I believe that the solution to a problem is contained within the disturbance itself; and I provide practical ways through which individuals, couples and groups can connect with a greater awareness.

This world can be a lonely and overwhelming place. Therapy provides a space to process the chaos of life while deepening your relationships - with yourself, with others, with the unknowable. When we allow ourselves to be truly seen and accepted, healing can begin.

Clients seek me out sometimes years into trying typical CBT/DBT life-skills therapies. They feel they need something more than self-regulation skills to feel understood, desiring to know themselves on a deeper plane of existence. My depth psychology approach is a soulful dive into Psyche: the Jungian unity of unconscious Dreams, Motivators, and Shadow, -married to your consciously-lived life. When unconscious patterns conflict with our known desires, we become stuck, feeling anxiety, depression, disconnected from ourselves and from humanity. Is it time to embark on a different journey of self-discovery? Schedule a free consultation!

As a clinical psychologist and Jungian analyst, I utilize psychodynamic psychotherapy including dream work, active imagination, and body-centered therapies to access your subjective (personal) and objective (soul) levels.
Each of us may begin psychotherapy for different reasons; an immediate crisis or traumatic experience, painful symptoms of depression, anxiety, loneliness, addictive behaviors, or grief. Exploring early life experiences and resolving trauma while addressing the here and now can help you be more engaged with others, make progress towards what you want in life, and experience more ease. Many individuals seek more existential but no less important questions of meaning, identity, sexuality, spirituality, philosophy, gender issues, psychology, politics, and power. All of these are excellent reasons for engaging in depth psychotherapy.

Jungian Therapists

How does Jungian therapy work?

Jungian therapy, also called analytical psychology, focuses on a patient’s inner experiences and unconscious mind. Exploring a person’s unconscious mind can be achieved through several means, including the analysis of memories and dreams, and through physical exercises, such as art, dance, and word association.

How long does Jungian therapy last?

Jungian therapy is an intensive treatment type. Because its goal is to understand a person as a whole, including the unconscious aspects of them, treatment can range from months to years. Since patients learn the theory behind Jungian therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have completed.

Is Jungian therapy effective?

According to studies, many patients find success with Jungian therapy, and the century-old treatment has a devoted following. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving relationships, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. Improvements in problem areas seem to continue even after the end of Jungian therapy, as people are able to continue working on themselves using the tools they’ve learned during the treatment.

Is Jungian therapy evidence-based?

Jungian therapy is theory-based, derived from the theories of Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist often called one of the fathers of psychology, along with Sigmund Freud. Jung developed his theories from observing the problems of patients, and developed many theories of how the mind works. Subsequent psychological research has determined that Jungian therapy can lead to significant improvement in most patients.
