Ameyo Katharina Barfred-Dixon
Music is in my bones and in my soul, and it is intimately woven into the texture of my work. My strong capacity to feel, see, and listen deeply, to create and resonate with another human being, brings richness, depth, sensitivity, strength and love to my work. I believe there is a strong link between psychological distress and creative expression, and find it of immense importance to keep the imagination alive in my work and everyday life.
My work spans from Bodywork and Movement to Integrative Psychosynthesis, Jungian Analysis to Art therapy, Mindfulness and Meditation, Music and Continuum Movement, Developmental Movement and the Creative Arts.
I am a solid and experienced psychotherapist, group facilitator, supervisor and trainer. I run a private practice from the heart of Copenhagen, as well as teaching and supervising at various schools for psychotherapy in the UK, Sweden and Denmark. Fundamentally, as a psychotherapist, my psychotherapeutic approach is Integrative and Transpersonal, incorporating concepts from Jungian analysis, Psychosynthesis, Gestalt and Family Systems theory such as Object Relations, as well as Developmental and Archetypal Psychology. The key concept in Integrative Transpersonal Psychotherapy is ‘Relation’: the nature of Relation between therapist and client, to oneself, and to Essence, is seen as fundamental and soulful – grounded in the ‘here and now’.
32 years of experience with a diverse client base enables me to adapt to the specific needs of each client or supervisee, inviting a mutual partnership of deep inquiry into soul rather than attempting to deliver a solution.
My calling is to support manifesting the Embodied Spirits that we all are - that all beings are - by opening us to be guided by life, thus anchoring and deepening our connection with ourselves, our soul, and our innermost divinity, connected to all…
As an Integrative Transpersonal Psychotherapist in service of Soul, I offer heartfelt psychotherapy, trainings, supervision, groups on dreams, workshops working with myth and stories & symbols, as well as continuum workshops and retreats for anyone wishing to bring embodied consciousness into their life, and/or professional practice, beyond words, through a living inquiry
I adhere to the codes and ethics of ReVision, my member organisation, the UK Council for Psychotherapy, and Dansk Psykoterapeut Forening, which ensures I have regular supervision and continue to develop personally, professionally and spiritually.
