The main interest of my work is not concerned with the treatment of neuroses but rather with the approach to the numinous. But the fact is that the approach to the numinous is the real therapy, and inasmuch as you attain to the numinous experience you are released from the curse of pathology. Even the very disease takes on a numinous character.
–CG Jung
The focus of depth coaching is the life of the soul–the work of moving toward highest alignment with one’s unique vibration in this lifetime. The center of this is holding sacred space in which whatever is needed can emerge: in the Jungian tradition, temenos. This is ceremony; this is alchemy.
Depth coaching holds the intention of shifting energetic obstruction that can interfere with one’s highest alignment, and that can remain unresolved despite years of work with other healing methods and therapies, often manifesting in feelings of stuckness, loss of sense of meaning and purpose, difficulty clarifying life direction and purpose, chronic and recurring physical ailments, shame and other painful narratives, problematic patterns in relationships, and many other physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual concerns.
These energetic dynamics–often stemming from personal and intergenerational trauma, grief, and unresolved past life or ancestral experiences, and other spiritual and interpersonal phenomena–may once have held a protective function, but can become constricting or limiting, now no longer serving the greatest good.
Depth coaching draws on a range of possibilities, including:
- Intuitive & spiritual guidance
- Life coaching from a Jungian / existential perspective
- Soul retrieval
- Exploration of ancestral and past life dynamics
- Subtle energy medicine & qigong
- Dreamwork
- Meditation
- Divination: Tarot & Yi Jing (Zhouyi, I Ching)
- And other intuitive, depth, somatic, and energy work
Because depth coaching is not under the scope of a professional license I am able to offer stand-alone depth coaching by telehealth anywhere in the US and internationally.
Depth coaching can also be helpful in conjunction with psychotherapy (in person or telehealth) and/or with acupuncture.
If you’re planning to visit from outside the Anchorage area, please feel free to inquire about intensives and extended sessions.
Specific possibilities vary from person to person and from session to session–please feel free to inquire as to what this might look like for your needs. For questions or to schedule an appointment please email mpaanavi@gmail.com or call 907-297-8590.
Please note
Depth coaching does not constitute medical or psychological diagnosis or treatment, is for educational / personal exploration purposes only, and is not typically reimbursable by health insurance or other third party payers.
