Psychotherapy Biography
Holaday Mason has a M.A. in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University. She has been a transpersonal, analytic psychotherapist in private practice since 1993 (MFT 31549). She works with individuals, couples & runs specifically calibrated therapeutic writing events & groups. Her work has been called “ Shaman-analysis” by some, because she respectfully employs both classic Eurocentric methods of uncovering & transforming unconscious material (somskaras) & shadows with older earth based wisdoms & eastern philosophies in the work of deep soul excavation.
We all have places we repeat & are not able to move forward even if we’re in denial of this.
The thing about pain is, that while we hate it, it’s also a gift since it cues us in to what we must transform. Pain demands we attend our evolution. Even if we do not “feel” pain, yet we’re still capable of seeing repetitions we don’t want or we realize we’re numb, then we still have the opportunity for transformation. I do not use that word lightly.
Summary: Psychodynamic & Analytic Work~Eastern/Yogic & Earth Based Healing
Training
There is no training ground more arduous an adventure than life itself. But without my teachers & healers I’d have remained lost in my singular versions of things.
My own 20 years as a patient in psychoanalysis has been the greatest most difficult place to train & grow. We can’t take others beyond where we’ve been.
I have also had the honor of being supervised over the years by many training analysts, mainly from PCC. I’m happy to give referrals if you ask.
As a seeker of esoteric growth & knowledge, just a few of my teachers, both formally & informally, past & present: Saul David Raye, Eric Schiffman, Jason Fram, Trudy Goodman, Laura Amazzone, Chani Nicholas, Eric Francis, Vicki Noble, Pema Chodron.
