Depth psychology demonstrated that we do not have just one will, consciously controlled, but many motivational centers that move us often unconsciously and that may at times work at cross-purposes,~Keiron Le Grice

highly recommended!

Jungian, James Hollis on how ideological dependency encourages regression.

The theoretical and clinical potency of psychoanalysis is out of sync with its flaccid public profile. We live in an era when depth therapy is under attack. Brilliance may not be enough; psychoanalysis needs to be heard and understood.

Saw the Giacometti exhibition at Tate Modern today. Bronze against brutalist concrete. One of the most wonderful sculpture exhibitions I’ve seen in recent times.

Have had several requests for a further date so I’m adding one in November. Space available for both. 🤓

Still a few spaces for October workshop - explore your own relationship with money and strengthen your capacity to have fee conversations that heal. #therapistsconnect #blueskytherapists

Spaces are filling, a few more available. Details below or DM me if any questions!

Lovely to see the response to below workshop - several people have booked already and others asking about future dates. October 10-11 still has spaces but filling steadily.

We can spend 50 minutes exploring a client's relationship with money but freeze when discussing our own fees. What are we avoiding in ourselves? New post: stillnessinthestorm.substack.com/p/money-ther... #therapistsky #blueskytherapists #TherapistSky #TherapistsConnect

With an impossible to-read list, mocking me, achieving sentience, I'm toying with a new criteria on what I buy/read: - Which trusted folks have called 'life-changing' - Required by training or specific projects - Everything else goes on the 'someday maybe' pile or wishlist What's yours?

Well that was August. What a lovely, restful and nourishing break!

“It is perhaps difficult for the Western mind to appreciate that man develops by growth rather than self-improvement, and that neither the body nor the mind grows by stretching itself; as the seed becomes the tree. 1/3

Most of us learn to work with trauma, attachment, transference. But what about our relationship with money? New Substack ✍️ on working with this key dimension to therapeutic work. stillnessinthestorm.substack.com/p/money-ther...

Latest Substack explores money and the fee - depth and archetypal principals alongside some clinical reflections. Link in bio!

Loneliness is a pathology and a destructive experience. Aloneness, on the other hand, is close to enlightenment. Very gradually my loneliness transforms into aloneness.~Robert A. Johnson, 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘦𝘸 𝘸/𝘑𝘰𝘩𝘯 𝘷𝘢𝘯 𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘚𝘵𝘦𝘶𝘳

We need ego, not for inflation or self centeredness, so that we can serve, effectively and purposefully. New post: stillnessinthestorm.substack.com/p/whats-wron...

Paul Russell on hate, from a Kalsched paper on defences — but lines up with a lot of other teaching I’ve had from wise ones -— that we hate, often, because we’re afraid of love — we’ve never had it, or it caused unimaginable injury when we let in what we thought was love. 🥰

Day 186 of #365DaysOfSmiles I think that's a yes!

I'm looking forward to this workshop. Anyone else care to join us? #moneyintherapy

There’s a place available on Jared’s workshop👇🏼. I was on the first one a couple of months ago and it was fantastic.

Just had a cancellation for next Fridays’ transformative workshop on the Archetype of Money in Therapy, so there’s one place available! More details and booking: wp.me/PdgokO-h6 Please RT if you can. 🙏

I saw this beautiful sculpture in Torre del Lago this week. The inscription moved me to tears. I’ve posted the translated text below.

Yes!

The need to "transcend ego" is a flawed narrative, which neglects important psychological work to create the foundations of healthy personality. How bypassing shows up in therapy, and what to do with it. New post: bit.ly/3Te1oA9 #therapistsky #blueskytherapists #TherapistSky #TherapistsConnect
