About
I offer services in Jungian analysis, licensed psilocybin facilitation, 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 7th year of training as a Jungian analyst. Prior to training in Zurich, I trained at the C.G. Jung Institute of New England.
Additionally, I am licensed as an Oregon state psilocybin facilitator and offer these services in the state of Oregon. I can work from Portland or any other desired service center space in Oregon.
The Jungian 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.
