Psychotherapy and Jungian Analysis

Any form of psychotherapeutic work is a co-creation between client and therapist. The process grows out of our collaborative reflections upon your past and present life, your ways of interpreting experience, your relational patterns, your desires and the narratives that arise in dream and fantasy.
