I offer services in Jungian psychoanalysis, psychedelic facilitation and integration, courses and lectures as well as consultation for institutions on health and wellness as they relate to Jungian psychology. I am a diploma candidate under supervision of the C.G. Jung Institute Zurich, where I am in my 6th year of training as a psychoanalyst. Prior to training in Zurich, I trained at the C.G. Jung Institute of New England. Additionally, I am trained as an Oregon state licensed psilocybin facilitator. There can be a profound impact in combining these two traditions that each bring the unconscious into the conscious realm.
The work I perform is oriented around helping people become their most authentic selves through integration of the unconscious into the conscious world. One of the core tenets of Jungian work is that the psyche is a self-righting system, it wants to be whole and healthy. We do this healing work together in a safe and trusting environment through the sharing of dreams, imaginations, artwork, and life narrative, together patiently assembling the story of your life and identifying patterns and opportunities.
My personal life has involved a number of paths, among them that of the full-time professor at the University of Washington, diabetes researcher, artist, illustrator, musician, designer, and creative director in the technology industry. Among all the things I do, there is a unifying belief in the triumph of the human spirit and ability for the tended psyche to function in profoundly creative and healing ways.
