About this episode

Welcome back to Therapy Chat! Welcome back to Therapy Chat! Today I'm bringing you a replay episode with Renee Beck, LMFT. 

Renee specializes in dreamwork, tarot and transpersonal psychotherapy. In this episode, she explains the shadow that is in all of us - the unconscious parts of ourselves which are hidden from our awareness. She describes how she works with her clients using dreamwork and tarot as well as other creative methods to bring the shadow to conscious awareness. 

Renee is available for clinical supervision in California and offers consultation on dreamwork and tarot anywhere in the world. She can be found at https://www.reneebeckmft.com
