Welcome back to Therapy Chat! Today I'm bringing you a replay episode with Lourdes Viado, PhD.

Lourdes is a psychotherapist in a private practice in Las Vegas and the host of the Women In-Depth Podcast. Lourdes explains depth psychology and concepts of Jungian psychology such as the Shadow, she describes her works with clients in the "Middle Passage" who are feeling out of alignment with themselves.

She shares some strategies she uses, including poetry, metaphor and dreamwork, which help her clients find their own way back to themselves while navigating this intense transition.
