Laura Chapman is a Jungian Analyst who trained in Pittsburgh with the Inter-Regional Society of Jungian Analysts (certified 2017). She is a Licensed Social Worker in Ohio and has been in private practice in Cleveland since 1980. She completed three-year post-graduate training at the Gestalt Institute of Cleveland and Intimate Systems Training, and her background in improvisational dance and movement informs a body-centered approach to analytic work. She is the current Director of Training for the Philadelphia Association of Jungian Analysts.
Chapman works with difficult life choices, critical illness, grief, personal discovery, and the recovery of parts of experience that may have been lost or left behind. The work may attend to family dynamics, life scripts, thought patterns, feeling, choice, and the effect of those choices on others. She incorporates dreams and waking-life symbols and, where appropriate, drawing, writing, or movement. With clients facing critical illness, she combines talk therapy with a body-centered approach while supporting them in finding a personal path through the healthcare system. She works in person in Cleveland and online.
