Depth psychology put simply is the psychology of the unconscious. Rather than a source of ills, the unconscious is seen as having healing value. Our view of depth psychology is that human beings continue to grow through the examination of the unconscious. Wholeness and individuation are sought in the path of the journey through the unconscious.
Our mission is to promote and seek wholeness and individuation by exploring the unconscious from multiple perspectives. Rather than regarding this variety as confusing, conflicting, or even adversarial, we promote the engagement of various schools of thought and theoretical perspectives. These areas of study include Psychoanalysis, Jungian Analytical Psychology, Existential Psychology, and various other non-institutionalized spiritual practices/psychologies. From this integrated standpoint, the CFDP seeks to promote a cross-fertilization of ideas to enhance, compliment, and articulate the complexity of human life and growth. The patient sitting with the therapist remains the same person, yet multiple perspectives greatly enrich the therapeutic dialogue about the process going on in the working relationship as it unfolds.
