Applying the Transformative Magic of Jung’s Transcendent Function:
Facilitating Movement Toward Healing and Wholeness
- Engaging the transcendent function therapeutically we are able to help a client work with an inner conflict or unwanted experience in a way that triggers the psyche’s innate ability to create movement toward healing and wholeness.
James Hillman’s Archetypal/Imaginal Psychology:
Dream Work, the Art of Personifying, and Tending the Pathologizing Soul
- From theory to practice: a chance to work with dreams as the psyche’s display of an inner, archetypal drama, in which experiencing and giving voice to the dream images allows us to follow the call of soul to engage with underlying psychic dynamics.
Melanie Klien and John Bowlby:
Object Relations and Reclaiming the Soul From Attachment Wounds
- A person’s sense of identity is often influenced by internalizing their experience of abuse, rejection, or neglect. Applying object relations theory to our work with clients, we engage a process that facilitates the differentiation and release of negative introjects and self-beliefs.
Developing Clinical Intuition:
Working in the Interpersonal Space of therapy, and Case Consultation
- This workshop discusses the nature of clinical intuition and its relationship to the interpersonal space in therapy, offering a practice to enhance our ability to meet any given therapeutic moment and client content spontaneously, authentically, and creatively.
