Soul Care Blog
The word psyche has roots in the Greek word psykhe meaning soul. Soul tending can take many forms in which psychotherapy is just one. When we are curious about and listen deeply to our inner world, when we make space for creativity, non-rational ways of knowing, dreams, when we inhabit our bodies, participate in ritual, when we act in service to what is wanting to come through us, these are all acts of soul-tending. This blog is dedicated to tending to the soul and bringing a depth psychological perspective to human experience.
What is Depth Psychology?
The main aspect of depth psychology that sets it apart from other frameworks is that depth psychology acknowledges and works within the unconscious. It views our conscious self (aka our ego) as a small island within a vast ocean of the unconscious. This ocean has a great, yet unseen, influence on the weather patterns on the island and our day-to-day experience. Rather than focusing solely on the island, depth psychology gets curious about our island experience, then puts on scuba gear to follow that experience into the ocean. It works within the depths, at the foundational origins of our experience, contributing to the long-standing transformation of our lived experience.
