How would you like to work on yourself?

Psychoanalysis is an orientation towards the discovery of your Truth. Through the psychoanalytic journey, within the safe space of the office (in person session) or online, the analysand is invited to speak freely (free association) about whatever he/she wants and thus, work towards the direction of his/her desire. The analyst listens carefully and may mark some moments of the analysand’s speech with interventions. The interventions might be in the form of clarification questions allowing the analysand to elaborate more, in the form of a ‘mark point’ about, for example, an unconscious repetition or a slip of the tongue. The ‘cut’ at the end of the session marks a moment which could allow to the analysand to think, process and open new perspectives, new possibilities for one’s life journey.   

Lacanian psychoanalysis is a psychoanalytic orientation which is based on the work, ethics and teaching of the French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan. 

Life coaching is a process through which we learn how to set specific goals in our life and how to focus and work on their achievement. Structural Life coaching uses a structural method and concepts from Lacanian psychoanalysis. You are called to build your own topology with all those things that make you feel good, so that you create the life you really want to live in the direction of your desire. 

We work with dialogue and questions, action plans, exercises and homework. We work from the ethical principle that every human being is unique. There is not a specific life solution for everyone. You are the expert in your life and for this reason there are not correct neither wrong answers, no specific advices and no promises for specific results. We believe that you do not need any “fixing” because you are a complete human being and you have everything you need to succeed, you just need to work on that.

Life coaching for children aims at the personal development of the child. It is a process through which parents decide to support and help their child in his/her personal development. Depending on the age of the child and each unique case, we are all (parents and coach) placed accordingly, so as to support the child. The child will receive significant help in matters that concern him/her and difficulties he/she  faces in life.

At Joy of Life Path we work with the ethics of the structural life coaching which uses a structural method and concepts from Lacanian psychoanalysis. We are called to build a structure, like a base made out of bricks that we need to slowly build. This topology will support the child in his development process.
