In contemporary culture, where everything moves at such a frantic pace, the world of soul and the inner lives of individuals often suffer. Depth analysis is a place of reflecting, remembering and reclaiming the parts of the psyche that were forced into the unconscious through the process of socialization (first in the family system and then in the larger culture). Depth analysis helps individuals and couples break free of destructive, repetitive behaviours and relational dynamics that are obstacles to a greater sense of flow and meaning in life, through reflective analysis, counselling, dreamwork, body-oriented psychotherapy and creative expression. This work is wonderful for deepening the creative process in artists. It can also be helpful in reducing and understanding symptoms related to depression, anxiety, trauma, loss and grief, difficult relationship dynamics, sexuality, and life transitions.
Dr. Mozol has extensive training and experience in working with trauma and focused her doctoral research on the connection between ancient goddess mythology, women's contemporary dreams, and sexual trauma. In her practice she helps both men and women free themselves from the negative side of patriarchal bonds and embrace a more authentic sense of self.
