Academic Work
While maintaining my practice in Zurich I am also teaching & learning from students from Western & non-Western cultures who aspire to become analytical psychologist. In my lectures I invite the listeners to explore the lived experience of the feminine body and psyche. By using myths and body work, my lectures & seminars are dialogues for psychotherapists who hold space for women in their practices.
The focus is on the potential for women to find pathways toward wholeness and restoration. It is directed not only on a personal level but also on the cultural collective, where the feminine body and psyche are no longer defined by wounding but by resilience, creativity, and regeneration. I also emphasize on the politics of the body through the lens of gender, sexuality and race – determining factors for mental, physical and spiritual health and on what complexes are constellated around these topics.
Together, we have the opportunity to honor the feminine voice, foster its healing, and create a more balanced, inclusive, and regenerative cultural narrative within analytical work. Analytical Psychology is especially enriched by a truly feminine perspective – integrating an archetypal understanding with embodied experience. Unfortunately, the legacy of our field has been largely rooted in a masculine, patriarchal perspective. My dream is that our generation together, can co-create new ways of further enriching well-established analytical methods in the support of women’s growth and flourishing.
