Jungian analysis begins with the understanding that the psyche is shaped by an intelligence that speaks in symbol, dream, image, and symptom. Healing arises when we learn to listen. In the analytic space, life slows enough for the deeper currents to be felt and tended to-the forgotten, unlived and exiled parts of the self that have been waiting to emerge.

During a lifetime, we arrive at moments when life has become narrow, heavy or hollow. Analysis holds these experiences with presence. Work moves gently downward, toward the places where meaning has pooled beneath consciousness. Dreams, images and symbol become guides. In time, what once appeared as disturbance begins to reveal the possibility of a new orientation and perspective.

This process invites wholeness and an expanded, quiet knowing of oneself. The psyche, when given time and attention, can begin to heal what has been torn, return what has been lost, and open pathways to new experience of oneself and the world.

I offer a space where the inner world of dreams, images and art speak their own language. I work with people in finding ways to themselves on the road to wholeness.
