ambivalence
Definition:
Using alchemical imagery helps clients conceptualise their personal growth and transformation. For instance, viewing their struggles as part of a “nigredo” (darkening) phase can provide a sense of purpose and hope for eventual renewal.
Example:
Exploring ambivalence helps clients acknowledge and reconcile conflicting feelings, such as love and resentment toward a parent, fostering psychological clarity and acceptance.
