I offer presentations, workshops, and consulting for individuals and groups on the work of C.G. Jung and Analytical Psychology.
I believe we learn best about Jungian psychology through lived experiences that awaken our emotional body through creativity and symbolic thinking, and slowing down enough to listen to our imagination and contemplative moments that bring forth our inner wisdom. We each express ourselves in different ways, and this expression naturally mobilizes us into the fullness of our life, towards living from a place of wholeness. The following are examples of past presentations, lectures and workshops.
**Not included in the following is the course that I designed and taught for Naropa University’s Transpersonal department: Jungian Psychology: Foundations and Central Concepts, which was the foundation for my book: Jungian Art Therapy: Dreams, Images, and Analytical Psychology.
Topics that interest me are using a “red book” process or notebooks to explore various topics such as creativity, countertransference, our relationship to nature and other metaphorical tools like Alchemy and Tarot. I enjoy teaching from the Collected Works, Jungian foundations and structure of the psyche, specific fairytales close to my heart, Psyche and Eros, creativity as an initiation process, dream analysis, various clinical topics including but not limited to issues associated with trauma and dissociation, feminine initiations, Jungian art therapy, and active imagination.
