BodySoul Work is embodied depth psychotherapy in the tradition of C. G. Jung. It offers an approach to healing that engages heart, mind, soul, imagination, and body in the psychotherapy process. 

In our fast-paced, high-tech culture we may ignore the promptings of soul, which then come in the form of dreams and physical or emotional symptoms. BodySoul Work offers an opportunity to reconnect with what is alive under the surface and beyond the tangible, while also honoring the practical demands of everyday life. 

Why Jungian Psychotherapy?

Research on psychotherapy outcomes has shown that the most significant predictor in successful treatment is the relationship between therapist and patient. Jung's methods ephasized working uniquely with each person who came for help, and the importance of the patient and therapist entering the process of transformation together. He developed a way of working that invited the "third" into the therapy process -- the wisdom of the patient's own psyche and body as portrayed by dreams, symptoms, active imagination, and revealed in the container of the therapeutic relationship. Engaging in such a process is committing to one's own individuation and evolution. Regular meetings together over a period of time help support such a process.

I utilize somatic and creative approaches such as movement, expressive arts, and sandplay - integrating them into the therapeutic or personal inquiry process. These modalities facilitate direct access to the imagination, the unconscious (material that is unknown to the person, or challenging to put into words), and the physical body (including symptoms and illnesses). The intent behind using these modalities is to offer an approach to psychotherapy and personal inquiry that is more holistic than verbal methods alone, while also being effective and empowering.
