Max Phillips - Psychotherapist and Jungian analyst
Therapy allows one the opportunity to speak openly and freely about anything that might be troubling in a setting that is confidential and non-judgmental. This can be a unique chance for us to bring into the open feelings that might be too uncomfortable to speak about anywhere else and may have not only the benefit of catharsis but of a deeper understanding of one's own inner life.
My approach is broadly based on the ideas of Carl Jung, who I believe came closer than any other depth psychologist to recognizing the psyche's spiritual purpose. Apart from Jung, I incorporate the methods of other psychoanalytic schools, but most importantly, I seek to put theory aside in the consulting room in order to meet the patient where s/he is at that time.
I offer short, medium as well as long-term therapy. I have also worked with patients at frequencies between once and four times per week. I have found that, when appropriate, higher weekly frequencies result in a more intense and deeper level of work.
