Creativity
Creativity and mental health are deeply intertwined, as the act of creating can serve as both a therapeutic outlet and a means of self-expression. Highly creative people think and live differently, which can be a huge asset but can also present a series of unique challenges. I have experience in helping people utilize their creative potential and in discussing the mysteries and frustrations that dwell in the creative process. I have worked with artists from various backgrounds, including writing, visual arts, photography, film and theater.
Psychoanalytic psychotherapy delves into the unconscious mind, uncovering underlying thoughts and feelings that can block the creative process. This therapeutic approach fosters a deeper understanding of oneself, allowing for a more authentic and uninhibited creative flow.
“The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from internal necessity. The creative mind plays with the object it loves.” - Carl Jung
