What is Depth Psychology?

An Invitation to Go Beneath the Surface

Depth Psychotherapy is a journey inward — a movement beneath the surface of symptoms and struggles, toward the hidden roots of our experiences.

Rather than focusing only on immediate problem-solving, depth-oriented work invites us to explore the unconscious patterns, inner conflicts, and symbolic meanings that shape our lives.

In this approach, symptoms such as anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship difficulties are not simply "problems to fix," but messengers — signals pointing us toward deeper truths and longings within.

Through the safety and attunement of the therapeutic relationship, we begin to uncover hidden layers of the psyche:
- Forgotten or disowned parts of the self
- Early attachment wounds and relational templates
- Archetypal patterns and mythic motifs
- Unconscious beliefs that continue to influence present life

Depth Psychotherapy honors the complexity of your unique story. It is an invitation not just to "feel better" — but to become more whole.

My Approach to Depth Psychotherapy

My work is rooted in psychodynamic principles, informed by the traditions of Jungian and Archetypal Psychology, contemporary Psychoanalysis, and somatic therapy.

Together, we will create a space where you can:
- Explore emotional patterns with curiosity and compassion
- Attend to dreams, images, and symbols as doorways into deeper meaning
- Listen to the body’s wisdom and unspoken stories
- Navigate major life transitions, grief, and identity shifts
- Reclaim lost or silenced aspects of yourself
- Cultivate a more authentic, soulful relationship to your life

Whether you are drawn to depth work because of a pressing life crisis or a quiet longing for something more meaningful, this process offers a profound path of healing and transformation.

Depth Work in Individual and Couples Therapy

Depth Psychotherapy can unfold both in individual therapy and in work with couples.

In individual therapy, we focus on your inner world — the places where your past, your body, and your unconscious meet your present experience.

In couples therapy, we explore the deep emotional bonds and unconscious patterns that shape your relationship, creating space for greater understanding, intimacy, and conscious connection.

An Ongoing Journey

Depth work is not a quick fix — it is a sacred unfolding. It honors the mystery, complexity, and wisdom inherent in the human soul.

If you feel called to move beyond the surface, to find meaning within struggle, and to become more deeply yourself, I would be honored to walk with you.

“The doors to the world of the wild Self are few but precious. If you have a deep scar, that is a door, if you have an old, old story, that is a door. If you love the sky and the water so much you almost cannot bear it, that is a door. If you yearn for a deeper life, a full life, a sane life, that is a door.”
