Jungian-oriented therapy is primarily concerned with the discovery and unfolding of a person's unique expression and purpose in life, whatever that may be. With its focus on exploring the unconscious, whether in the form of symptoms - depression, anxiety, loneliness, trauma responses, frustration, physical pain or illness, addictions, negative patterns of behaviors, problems in relationships, nightmares, insomnia, etc - or other expressions of the unconscious mind, such as dreams, fantasies, and complexes, our work together aims to bring about greater awareness of the self and a genuine experience of wholeness and fulfillment.

Our Commitment to the Work
We provide a safe, supportive, and confidential space of listening, reflection, and exploration of both the conscious and unconscious psyche. We offer a place to discuss thoughts, feelings, ideas, fears, fantasies, challenges, dreams, questions, and answers, and we are fully committed to each client's self-expression and well-being.
Our Commitment to the Work
Who looks outside, dreams;
who looks inside, awakes.
-Carl Gustav Jung
We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.
-Joseph Campbell
Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Think...of the world you carry within you.

Our Approach
Jungian-oriented therapy employs the techniques of talk therapy, dream analysis, exploration of developmental factors, psycho-education, somatic awareness, and attention to the therapeutic transference. We also explore current life situations, meaningful experiences, and pay special attention to numinous or out-of-the-ordinary moments in ordinary life, such as synchronicity, spontaneous visions, falling in love, or religious experience. Therapy may also include sandplay or art therapy if deemed helpful.
We are familiar with the challenges many people face today. Our therapists have significant life experience in addition to being highly trained in the field of Jungian psychology. We are also skilled in cognitive-behavioral therapy, marriage, couples, family, and child therapy, the treatment of trauma (childhood, sexual, and adult), eating disorders, addictions, and mood disorders. Our therapists also have knowledge of multiple religious and cultural traditions including Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, Taoism, and Gnosticism, as well as diverse philosophical perspectives.
Sooner or later something seems to call us onto a particular path... this is what I must do, this is what I've got to have. This is who I am. - James Hillman
