In private practice for more than 30 years, Martha uses the analytical
framework of C.G. Jung to assist and honor people searching for
psychological healing and wholeness.
As a Jungian psychotherapist, Martha uses the images
that people experience, either while dreaming or awake, to interpret
life. These images, understood as symbols, establish connections
between consciousness, the ego, and the deeper layers of the personal
and/or collective unconscious.
It is common nowadays for us to develop and prize
our thinking, intellectual side over the feeling side, and to value
the material over the spiritual. However, Jungian theory finds that
great creative and energizing resources live in the neglected unconscious
aspects of our psyches, and works toward helping us access these
riches.
Swiss psychiatrist C.G. Jung (1875-1961) evolved a
form of psychotherapy whose guiding principle was to foster “individuation,”
which means becoming the unique person you really are. Jungian psychology,
also known as analytical psychology, sees our symptoms—the
painful and disturbing issues in our lives—as gateways to
this process of individuation. It recognizes and welcomes images,
dreams and fantasies as signs of growth, and, along with relief
from pain, it aims toward enlarged consciousness and a sense of
aliveness.
Martha has found Jungian psychotherapy to be an effective
treatment for anxiety, depression and relationship issues. It can
also help those who have trouble with work or motivation, and those
who feel that their life has lost its meaning or vitality. Jungian
psychology assists people in connecting with their true inner selves,
and is a powerful tool for artists and writers.
With compassion, wisdom and respect, Martha will help
you in transforming hardship and difficulty into fulfillment, wholeness
and creativity.
