Know Thyself — Through Descent

 

Aion Psychodynamic Coaching is not a personal development service, nor is it therapy.
It is a non-clinical structure for psychological and philosophical inquiry, centered on logical precision, dialectical accountability, gentle investigation, and symbolic descent.

 

Aion Psychodynamic Coaching offers one-on-one, non-clinical mentorship grounded in:

​

• Analytical Psychology (C.G. Jung)

• Individual Psychology (Alfred Adler)

• Psychoanalytic theory

• Philosophical inquiry and Socratic dialectics

• Western alchemical and mystical frameworks

 

The Work prioritizes disciplined psychological descent, rather than aspirational growth. It does not focus on "personal optimization", "symptom relief", or "affirmation" (though these results do occur via the process). This Work is NOT therapy. It is likewise not "coaching" in the commercial sense. It is structured dialogue in the tradition of analysis and inquiry, oriented toward what Jung called individuation; or a conscious relationship with the unconscious and the symbolic.

 

The Core of the Work

 

This framework centers on what we call The Wounded Child; sometimes referred to as the "Personal Shadow" (as opposed to the "Collective Shadow") or "Subconscious". Informed by both classical and postmodern psychological traditions, this work also examines the systemic influences that shape inner life, such as capitalism, supremacist conditioning, and inherited narratives of progress and performance.

 

Each session is an encounter with one’s own material, facilitated through questioning, reflection, and symbolic exploration. There are no techniques, templates, or fixed trajectories. The work proceeds through the content that emerges.

 

This is for those who are not looking for tools, steps, or frameworks. It is for those who are prepared to sit with the unknown, personally, psychologically, and structurally.

 

Context and Structure

​

• Sessions are one-on-one, offered on a Pay What You Choose basis (with a modest minimum).

• No contracts, commitments, or tiered pricing structures.

• The project is part of a nonprofit-in-development, under the broader frame of the House of Aion.

 

If you are interested in engaging this work, you may begin with a Discovery Session.

This is a one-hour introductory conversation without cost (donations are always welcome) or obligation.
