SoulCraft for Dreamwork and Life Issues

505-401-2388

Personal Depth Consultation

After more than four decades as a depth psychologist and psychotherapist, my work is evolving into a more spacious, soulful, and spiritually attuned form of practice. This transition reflects both the natural maturation of my clinical life and a deepening call emerging through dreams, writing, and long-standing spiritual exploration.

SoulCraft Consultation is a non-medical, depth-oriented approach devoted to inner life, meaning, and transformation. It is grounded in presence rather than diagnosis, and in relationship rather than treatment.

This work may include:

Dreamwork and engagement with the unconscious

Sensitivity to energetic and relational fields

Psycho-spiritual insight and soul development

Symbolic exploration of life transitions and thresholds

Long-term accompaniment rooted in attunement, meaning, and mutual presence

SoulCraft is not psychotherapy. It does not diagnose, treat, or operate within a medical or insurance model. It is a form of consultation and guidance—soul companionship—shaped by decades of clinical experience and a lifetime of immersion in dreams, myth, spirituality, and the living field of consciousness.

For some long-term patients, this work represents a natural continuation of our shared journey. For others, it offers a new doorway into a more imaginal, relational, and spiritually alive dimension of inner exploration.

SoulCraft is the work I am called to offer in this season of life—
and for as long as the soul allows.

Psychic Reality!

July 19, 2014  /  Paul DeBlassie III

 

When depth psychologists speak of psychic reality it is about a felt happening that underlies all reality and influences our daily life, so, to my way of thinking, it's certainly something to cultivate a healthy and ongoing sensitivity and reverence for.

Carl Jung: "Psychic reality" is a controversial concept, like "psyche" or "mind."

By the latter terms some understand consciousness and its contents, others allow the existence of "dark" or "subconscious" representations. 

Some include instincts in the psychic realm, others exclude them. The vast majority consider the psyche to be a result of biochemical processes in the brain cells.

A few conjecture that it is the psyche that makes the cortical cells function. 

Some identify "life" with psyche. But only an insignificant minority regards the psychic phenomenon as a category of existence per se and draws the necessary conclusions.

It is indeed paradoxical that the category of existence, the indispensable sine qua non of all existence, namely the psyche, should be treated as if it were only semi-existent. 

Psychic existence is the only category of existence of which we have immediate knowledge, since nothing can be known unless it first appears as a psychic image. 

Only psychic existence is immediately verifiable.

To the extent that the world does not assume the form of a psychic image, it is virtually non-existent. 

This is a fact which, with few exceptions as for instance in Schopenhauer's philosophy-the West has not yet fully realized. But Schopenhauer was influenced by Buddhism and by the Upanishads. ~Carl Jung, Psychology and Religion, Pages 480-481.
