Jungian Psychology
At the Wilfred Hazelwood Clinic, we offer Jungian psychology counselling to help you explore the depths of your psyche and achieve greater self-awareness, personal growth, and emotional wellbeing.
Jungian psychology, founded by renowned Swiss psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung, is a rich and profound approach to understanding the human experience, emphasising the importance of the unconscious mind, archetypes, and the process of individuation.
Our lead therapist, Martyn J. Shrewsbury, has extensive training in Jungian psychology, having completed a Post-Graduate Diploma in Jungian Studies and additional training in Jungian and Post-Jungian Clinical Concepts with The Centre for Applied Jungian Studies. With his deep understanding of Jungian principles, Martyn can guide you through a transformative journey of self-discovery and healing.
During a Jungian psychology counselling session, Martyn will create a safe and supportive space for you to explore your inner world, including your dreams, fantasies, and symbolic experiences. By working with the language of the unconscious, he can help you uncover the hidden dynamics and patterns that shape your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, and facilitate a process of integration and wholeness.
Jungian psychology counselling can be particularly helpful for those seeking to address issues such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, creative blocks, and relationship challenges. By engaging with the archetypal dimensions of your experience and exploring the shadow aspects of your personality, you can develop greater self-awareness, authenticity, and resilience, and cultivate a more meaningful and fulfilling life.
At the Wilfred Hazelwood Clinic, we believe that the wisdom of Jungian psychology offers a powerful path to healing, growth, and transformation. That's why we offer personalised Jungian psychology counselling sessions tailored to your unique needs and goals. Whether you're seeking to work through personal challenges, explore your creative potential, or deepen your spiritual connection, Martyn is here to provide you with the guidance and support you need to embark on a profound journey of self-discovery.
If you're ready to dive deep into your psyche and harness the transformative power of Jungian psychology, book a Jungian psychology counselling session with Martyn at the Wilfred Hazelwood Clinic today. Let us help you connect with your inner wisdom and chart a path towards greater self-awareness, wholeness, and fulfilment.
The Johari Window
The Johari Window, a tool for self-awareness, complements Jungian psychology by exploring the relationship between the self and others. Dividing the self into four areas - open, hidden, blind, and unknown - the Johari Window aligns with Jung's emphasis on integrating conscious and unconscious aspects of the psyche. Martyn J. Shrewsbury incorporates the Johari Window into his Jungian psychology counselling at the Wilfred Hazelwood Clinic, facilitating self-discovery and personal growth.
The Johari Window, a tool for understanding interpersonal communication, takes on new depth when applied to the therapist-client relationship. As seen in the below diagram, the interaction between therapist and client occurs across conscious and unconscious channels, creating a complex web of communication. From the straightforward conscious-to-conscious exchange to the intriguing interplay of unconscious messages, this model illuminates the multi-layered nature of therapeutic dialogue. By recognising these different levels of communication, both therapist and client can work towards greater self-awareness and a more profound understanding of the therapeutic process.
