Jungian psychoanalysis is a mutual process of addressing what is both unknown to you and about you. 

It is sometimes today differentiated from psychotherapy. Whereas psychotherapy generally aims to help you cope with inevitable difficulties of life, Jungian psychoanalysis usually attempts to address symbolic patterns that give character to such difficulties. Distinctions between these two disciplines are however often unnecessary in practice.

Advice-giving and direct guidance are not associated with psychoanalysis. You are instead encouraged to speak as openly as possible. Any thought or fantasy, any feeling or emotion, may be important to the process—even and especially if it is about me or the analysis itself. I attempt to meet you where you are, with what you are expressing, by what is communicated between us. “In this house” we work with dreams!

The time commitment for psychoanalysis varies; everyone and every situation is rightfully unique. The goal for every analysis remains nevertheless shared: to deepen participation in psychological life. A hopeful side effect of this work is therefore the freedom to act on yourself.
