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
