Archetypal Consulting Coming Soon

Archetypes are patterns in our psyche that influence our emotional, mental, and spiritual growth. These concepts are not new; Plato mentioned them in his writings, and the famous Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung also explored archetypes in his work. Jung rejected the tabula rasa theory of human psychological development, which suggests that people are born as a "blank slate" and their experiences shape their thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. Instead, Jung believed in universal experiences inherent to the human condition, such as belonging, love, death, and fear. He referred to these as the "collective unconscious" and expressed them through "archetypes." Jung thought that these archetypes are shaped by evolutionary pressures and manifest in the behaviors and experiences of individuals.

Dr. Niccie has been studying the work of Caroline Myss and her approach to working with archetypes for the last two years. She has found that the way archetypes manifest in our lives is closely related to how our nervous system responds to life's stresses.

Becoming aware of how your archetypes function can help you better manage life's stresses, which can naturally improve your health. Combining archetypal counseling with chiropractic care not only impacts your nervous system, making it more resilient to stress and aiding in natural healing, but also helps prevent chronic nervous system dysregulation in response to stress. Together, these approaches help you to be your best.
