My Journey Toward Depth Psychology

I have always been drawn to the unseen layers of human experience—the emotions beneath the surface, the stories we tell ourselves, the dreams that speak to us in symbols. My path began in education and spiritual work, first as a teacher for special education students and later as an ordained minister. But it was a series of disturbing nightmares in 2008 that truly set me on the course toward depth psychology.

I became fascinated by the unconscious, leading me to pursue studies in anthropology, media/social psychology, and depth-oriented counseling psychology. This deep curiosity continues to shape my work today. I write extensively about the unconscious and lead dream groups, guiding others in understanding how dreams influence our waking lives.
