Get to know yourself better.
My work is shaped by the psychoanalytic approach of
C.G. Jung
This approach involves working with dreams.
I also encourage my clients to paint or explore themselves in the Sandplay method. These methods help to access the unconscious, which is necessary to heal the often one-sided attitude of our conscious mind. Most importantly, I want to offer a therapeutic space for healing, a space of safety and at the same time a space that allows you to reflect on yourself in a truthful way.
Inner child work
We all have a child within us that is still present, we are just unaware of her or him and how much this child with its feelings forms our perceptions of the world and shapes our relationships.
Our self-worth is starting with our inner child. This child in us is formed by how we got treated in our families.
With a variety of techniques this child within, that is also the core of who we truly are, is being made conscious during the therapeutical process.
Inner child work is something I highly recommend. However, for each individual the timing for working with his or her inner child is different and depending on the stability of the outer life situation.
“My aim is to bring about a psychic state in which my patient begins to experiment with his own nature – a state of fluidity, change and growth where nothing is eternally fixed and hopelessly petrified”
(C.G. Jung, Collected Works 16, para 99)
