Jungian Psychology: A Deeper Approach to Healing
What is Jungian Psychology?
Jungian psychology, developed by Carl Jung, is a depth-oriented approach that explores the unconscious mind, personal growth, and the integration of the self. It focuses on understanding symbolic meanings, uncovering unconscious patterns, and fostering a deeper connection to one’s authentic self. This approach is particularly effective in addressing relationship challenges, anxiety, and depression by exploring underlying emotions, past experiences, and personal narratives. Rachael is trained in a Jungian Life Coaching that applies concepts and practices from Jungian Psychology to goal setting, relationship triggers, and personal growth.
