Intensive Jungian Shadow Work

I also offer general attachment-based and Jungian psychotherapy at 拢55 per hour as well as emotional and practical support for carers at 拢30 per session - see my other 网爆门 Directory Listings for details.

This programme is an Intensive Jungian Shadow series: weekly 90-minute meetings supported by detailed dream analysis between sessions. We focus on the Shadow鈥攖he parts of the personality we hide, disown or project onto others. By tracking nightly dreams and the feelings stirred in session, we invite those hidden energies into conscious dialogue so they can transform rather than sabotage.

Each week you record your dreams; I study the series (out of session), trace recurring symbols and write a concise report that we unpack together. We combine classic Jungian techniques (amplification, active imagination) with a solid grounding in attachment and trauma science, so exploration stays both symbolic and emotionally safe. The aim is not quick symptom relief but deep structural change: reclaiming lost vitality, integrating contradictory parts and opening a renewed sense of purpose.

• Format: one 90-minute video or in-person session every week, plus written dream-series report delivered before each meeting.
• Fee: 拢120 per week (covers session + report). Concessions are rare but ask if cost is a genuine barrier.
• Between sessions: you鈥檒l keep a brief dream log and note strong emotional triggers. I handle the heavy lifting of analysis so you can stay present to daily life.
• Who it鈥檚 for: people ready for intensive inner work鈥攐ften at mid-life, in creative fields, or facing repeating patterns that lighter therapy hasn鈥檛 shifted. Neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ clients welcome.
• What to expect: We map dream themes, notice live Shadow moments in the room, practise active imagination, and ground insights through body awareness and everyday experiments. Written reports offer structure; sessions offer felt experience.

We begin with a free 30-minute call to be sure the intensity and cost feel right. The first paid session (90 min) unfolds in three steps:

1. Story & context 鈥� you outline key life events, current struggle and any recurring childhood dreams.
2. Dream orientation 鈥� we discuss how to capture dreams (voice notes, quick sketches) and what makes a 鈥渄ream series.鈥� Dreams that surface just before therapy often sketch the initial map of the work; recurring childhood dreams frequently spotlight core Shadow material.
3. Attachment lens 鈥� we sketch how early relationship strategies still colour present experience, giving us a developmental frame for the dream material.

You leave with a starter dream-log template, the first session date in the diary, and clarity about goals, pace and confidentiality.

I offer appointments seven days a week, with slots from early morning through late evening, including Saturdays and Sundays. Therapy has to fit the realities of modern life, so I keep my diary wide open: whether you work shifts, juggle family care, or travel often, we can usually find a time that works. If something unexpected comes up, I鈥檓 flexible鈥攕essions can be moved to another day or time without penalty as long as you give reasonable notice. In short: whenever life changes, we鈥檒l adapt the schedule so your therapy stays on track.

I blend modern attachment science with Jungian depth psychology to help you understand both the roots and the meaning of your struggles. Early on we use Patricia Crittenden鈥檚 Dynamic Maturational Model to map how childhood relationships shaped the 鈥渕ental maps鈥� you still follow today. At the same time we listen to the unconscious through dreams, images and body sensations, treating each dream as a living conversation that can reveal lost parts of the self and point toward growth.

The relationship between us is central. I aim to become a secure base鈥攔eliable, honest and warmly curious鈥攕o you can experiment with new ways of feeling and relating in real time. As protective patterns surface (pulling away when hurt, over-pleasing, bracing for criticism) we slow down, notice what your body is doing, and ask what the pattern is trying to protect. We work toward compassion for the younger self who first needed that strategy, and鈥攚hen you are ready鈥攖oward realistic forgiveness of others without excusing harm.

I weave in person-centred values, mentalisation (a 鈥渘ot-knowing鈥� stance) and practical tools from trauma therapy and Rational-Emotive CBT where they help. The goal is lasting change that reaches mind, body and imagination, not a quick fix or a box-ticking exercise.

Sessions run for about 60 minutes, but we finish when the work naturally settles, not when a timer beeps. Meetings are usually weekly or fortnightly, online (video or phone); Fee: 拢45-55; concessions are available鈥攑lease ask if cost is a concern.

People come with anxiety, low mood, trauma, grief, relationship issues, neurodivergence, spiritual questions or a sense of 鈥淚鈥檝e achieved everything yet still feel empty.鈥� Some have tried therapy before and feel something deeper is missing; others are new and simply curious. I welcome adults of every background and identity, including LGBTQ+, neurodivergent and cross-cultural clients. My own experience of ADHD, outdoor living and caregiving means I understand life lived outside the usual boxes.

What to expect? A conversation that is sometimes playful, sometimes challenging, always respectful. One week we might map an attachment pattern; the next we may unpack a dream, practice grounding or sit quietly to let something emerge. There is no compulsory homework, though many clients enjoy keeping a dream or reflection journal between sessions. You will leave each meeting feeling seen, understood and a little more connected to yourself.

We start with a free 30鈥�60-minute call to see whether we fit鈥攏o forms, no pressure. If we decide to go ahead, the first paid meeting sets the tone for our work together.

I invite you to speak in whatever order feels natural: recent stresses, life history, or a dream that may have landed overnight. Dreams that surface the night before therapy begins鈥攁nd those vivid, recurring childhood dreams you still remember鈥攐ften sketch the interior landscape in astonishing detail. They highlight core themes such as abandonment, striving, secrecy or hidden talents. Exploring these images together gives us an intuitive compass for the journey ahead.

Alongside dream material we map your early relationships using modern attachment theory. We look at how caregivers responded to your needs, the strategies you developed (reaching out, shutting down, staying hyper-alert) and how those strategies still shape emotions, body states and relationships today. Understanding this developmental story is not about blame; it is about seeing the logic of your psyche and spotting where change is possible.

We finish by agreeing next steps: pace, session times, any reflective exercises (for example, keeping a brief dream log or noting relational triggers) and your hopes for the first few months. You leave with a clear sense of the road map鈥攔ooted in both attachment science and the symbolic language of your dreams鈥攁nd the confidence that we will walk it at a speed that feels safe for you.
