Our approach to mental health counseling and education emphasizes prevention, wellness, and positive mental health for individuals and couples. We bring over 30 years of experience with a unique orientation that blends traditional counseling and psychotherapy with Jungian Psychology, Imago Relationship Therapy, and Body/Mind techniques. Cost effective? If you can't afford prevention how can you afford illness? A year of counseling is less expensive than one hospitalization.

Jung on Enlightenment: As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to light a candle in the darkness of mere being. (C.G. Jung, MDR) . . "The main interest of my work is not concerned with the treatment of neuroses but with the approach to the numinous. But the fact is that the approach to the numinous is the real therapy and in as much as you attain to the numinous experiences, you are released from the curse of pathology." (Jung, Letters)

typology for increased understanding of oneself and one's partner furthers

elements.

understanding that connects us with a wisdom far beyond ourselves. As we unravel
their meaning we become more aware of who we truly are.

"Whenever we speak of a 'psychological
relationship' we presuppose one that is conscious, for there is no such thing
as a psychological relationship between two people who are in a state of
unconsciousness." --- C.G. Jung.
"Human beings are not very keen on
substituting reality for the allurement of fantasies. We prefer to go on
looking for the perfect man or woman, that is the man or woman who will fit our
ideal image and guarantee that we are happy and fulfilled, even though it leads
to one disappointment after another, and adds more and more bitterness to our
cup of life". --- John A. Sanford.
"We have not yet learned to handle the
tremendous power of romantic love. We turn it into tragedy and alienation more
often than we evolve it into enduring human relationships. But if men and women
come to understand the psychological dynamics behind romantic love and learn to
handle them consciously, they will find a new possibility of relationship both
to themselves and to others." --- Robert Johnson.
Imago Relationship Therapy is the first
systematic theory of marriage and marital therapy derived exclusively from the
study of couples. Its aim is to help couples create a "conscious
marriage". This entails helping couples identify and integrate their
unconscious issues, so that the relationship may fulfill its natural purpose of
mutual healing, collaborative self-development, and wholeness. The basis for
healthy parenting, especially co-parenting, is found in the patterns learned in
childhood and repeated in adult marital relationships. For "better or
worse", these patterns are repeated (often unconsciously) in parenting our
own children.
Imago Relationship Therapy provides the basis
for understanding how relationships really work, taking into account that
childhood experiences form an unconscious image (The Imago) that is then sought
after in a partner. Unconscious images play a powerful role in the formation of
identity and the choice of a partner. The unconscious forces that attracted us
to our partner may also be the source of conflicts and power struggles that
develop in the relationship. These patterns are then repeated in the parenting
of our own children.
Imago Relationship Therapy provides a
powerful and effective method for helping couples learn how to heal rather than
continue to hurt one another, often unintentionally passing these hurts on to
our own children. By becoming conscious of the childhood wounds that affect
your relationship, you learn to become "wounded healers" for one
another in a safe, intimate, and committed relationship, and conscious, healthy
parenting together!

"Bringing the contents of the
unconscious realm into conscious awareness so that we can know ourselves and
fulfill our destinies is the sacred mission of human beings. One of the best
ways I know of to answer this calling is to examine our dreams. As we decode
their mysterious symbols and find ways to fit their meaning into the unfolding
puzzle of our lives, we integrate the spiritual and archetypal aspects of our
experience and move closer to becoming completed individuals." --- Robert
Johnson.

Consciousness Development Groups. (Educational)
One of the things a NDE brings is the
realization that we are not merely physical beings and that we are are not
alone in the universe! As Jung said; "I do not believe, I Know!" As
we live into the new millennium we will all be faced with this emerging truth,
a passage that is both terrifying and ecstatic as we take the quantum leap (not
just the next step) in the evolution of human consciousness! Participating in
this transition will hopefully assist us all in being Wounded Healers to one
another as we seek psychological and spiritual healing, wholeness, and
individuation on this earth.

Body/Mind/Spirit Integrative Health Education
Groups:
Participants
learn and practice a variety of mind-body techniques to increase self-awareness,
reduce stress, increase immunity, and re-energize the Self!
BODY/MIND ENERGETIC LEARNING is based both on the wisdom of ancient
healing traditions and modern psychoneuroimmunology, in which mysticism and
science are co-creating a new, sacred healing art. While emotions link the mind
and the body, the Source behind these patterns is energetic and Spiritual.
Healing and high level wellness occurs energetically as transformative
repatterning and alignment with higher energies in physical, mental and
transpersonal dimensions.
These training groups are appropriate for persons experiencing emotional distress or chronic illnesses as well as those interested in proactively fostering health and happiness. Groups involve an introduction to various body/mind techniques such as biofeedback and relaxation, meditation and prayer, bio energetic exercise (Tai Chi, Qigong and Yoga), nutrition, cellular biology and the effects of consciousness and belief on health, music and artistic expression, relationships and support. Each participant will complete the program having developed a Personal, Conscious Health Plan.
Groups are limited to 6 - 10 participants and
meet for 2 hours weekly in 2 four week segments or a weekend format.
Rather than a shallow approach or quick fix
solution, taking the time to really explore the nature of personality gives
individuals and organizations a grasp of themselves and others that is not only
personally gratifying, but may well contribute to a more satisfying bottom
line.
People who are more psychologically
sophisticated are better able to accept the reality of things (and people) as
they really are, rather than how they may wish them to be!
People who get along and work well together
through an understanding and acceptance of individual personalities- their
similarity and differences - are more productive, effective, and efficient!
Authentic Management is about discovering who
people really are, and encouraging them to motivate and express themselves from
within, rather than attempting to manipulate and control people's motivation
and behavior from without.
Personality - Centered management is not
about problems or pathology! It is about the natural and healthy growth and
development that is the focus of good mental health, in the work place and at
home, in personal as well as professional relationships. And learning about
such things at work contributes to the value of the work place in every area of
one's life; economically, personally, and even spiritually.
Licensed Mental Health Counselors may not
only be helpful as trainers and consultants, but also have the expertise to
provide a professionally administered and interpreted personality assessment.
Counseling Associates offers certified clinical mental health counselors that
are specifically oriented towards facilitating the process of healthy growth
and development that Carl Jung so aptly named the Individuation Process
