Welcome to a space where the unconscious meets the conscious, dreams are a parallel reality, shadows are not only cast by trees, and metaphors and symbols come to life.
“There is no possibility of individuation on top of Mount Everest where you are sure nobody will bother you. Individuation always means relationship… connectivity is the worst position if you dissolve in it; but if you can hold onto yourself while still keeping in touch with it, that is the ideal condition…Individuation is impossible without relationships.’’
C.G. Jung (quoted in L. Barrett, 2023, p.182)
We shall not cease from exploration,
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
T.S Eliot, Four Quartets, 1942
Embracing the Whole: Jungian Coaching for Individuation
Jung describes individuation as “the process by which a person becomes a psychological ‘in-dividual’, that is a separate, indivisible unity or ‘whole’.” (CW 9, pars. 489-524)
The process is unique for everyone yet there is a pattern. It is about exploring, listening and giving space to the parts of you that speak through recurring thoughts, longings, dreams, synchronicities, even bodily discomfort. This work is about shifting perspective, reshaping patterns, moving the boundaries of possibility and using your new insights in the ‘real’ world. You know what to do, or not, when and if. Ultimately, soulful living is about being fully present where you are, with what is available to you in each moment. This is a lifelong, spiral journey towards meaning and wholeness.
What to Expect in Sessions?
Hopefully change. In our sessions, we may draw on:
symbolic thinking and imagery
creative expression and movement
active imagination and dialogue
dreamwork
What arises from within your psyche carries the most potent transformative energy. From chaos, clarity emerges. From noise, silence. You are always free to dive as deeply as feels right - in your own rhythm, at your own pace.
Meeting you will be enriching.
