Psykhe Psychoanalytic Practice

There were days when Duck noticed something strange.
- Who are you? Why are you creeping along behind me?
- Good. You’ve finally noticed me. I am Death.
Duck was scared stiff. You could hardly blame her for that.
- You’ve come to fetch me?
- I have watched you since you were born… just in case.

This is an excerpt from the beautiful children’s book Duck, Death and the Tulip by Wolf Erlbruch. For many, this quote might seem in poor taste or at least uncomfortable: “Why are you talking to me about this subject? You can’t live thinking about this! It’s not a topic for children!”
Truth be told, adults are often not very skilled at discussing the big issues of existence with children.

Who do we protect when we avoid naming Death or use euphemisms to refer to it? Are we trying to protect children, or are we shielding ourselves from the fear that such discussions provoke in us? Is it not true that we lack the language to articulate Death and the emotions it evokes? Isn’t that why we often rely on social conventions when approaching someone who is grieving? The reality is, we often don’t know what to say, and what we do know becomes even more elusive when we have to speak to children...

Based Treatment

Celebrating World Poetry Day! 🎉

The PEP-Web Archive is a trove for poems and poets. Here's one by Emily Dickinson that is popular across journal articles:

To make a prairie

To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
One clover, and a bee.
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few.

Struggling to get back into the swing of things after taking time off for the holidays? You’re not alone…

The new year can bring many feelings - from excitement and hope, to longing and uncertainty. These are all part of the human experience and we encourage you to allow and explore those feelings and to reflect on the very human need for understanding.

Magazines and social media show a festive face to this season, but very often it can be a tough/sad one. Or a mix of many emotions all at once. Having different feelings come up is normal and is part of the emotional experience. It’s ok not to be ok - and if you’re finding it hard to look after yourself, reach out for support.

Psykhe Psychoanalytic Practice is open.
