Psychoanalytic Therapy
Our psychoanalytic therapy explores unconscious patterns affecting emotions and relationships. By integrating modern psychoanalysis with Buddhist Psychology, we help clients achieve emotional freedom through deep therapeutic dialogue. This approach addresses trauma, anxiety, and relational challenges by examining early life influences and fostering neuroplasticity-driven healing.
Clinical Supervision
We provide clinical supervision for post-licensure psychotherapists, focusing on professional growth and emotional integration. Our mentorship combines modern psychoanalytic principles with contemplative practices to enhance therapeutic effectiveness and reduce professional isolation through collaborative, supportive dialogue.
Group Therapy
Our group therapy sessions create a supportive environment for exploring relational dynamics. By examining unconscious protective patterns within a group setting, participants develop greater emotional spontaneity and authentic connections through guided therapeutic interactions and shared experiences.
Contemplative Psychotherapy
This service blends Buddhist Psychology with Western clinical practices to address suffering through mindfulness and self-compassion. We help clients develop present-moment awareness to better understand and regulate emotional responses rooted in past experiences and cultural conditioning.
Neurobiology of Attachment
