Marilyn D. Manzi

I work with people who are feeling challenged by life transitions, yearn to understand the inner workings of what makes them unique, and want to live fiercely through that authentic expression. You are drawn to Jungian Psychology because you are innately intuitive in your personal exploration.

Through my own empathic capacity, I draw out valuable insights while holding a safe space for my patients to share their inner experience and life transitions. You may uncover your truth by becoming more in tune with your complexes, defenses, and shadow material. These parts of you may be calling your attention to be worked with and integrated through creativity. Through bringing consciousness to complexes, a new ego strength is born that allows wholeness to emerge through you. Working with me, you may discover an unfoldment that leads to a more harmonious life that expresses from authenticity.
