Linda Cunningham, Ph.D., MFT is a psychotherapist and consultant in private practice in Petaluma and San Francisco, California. She has taught contemporary psychoanalytic and Jungian theory, as well as sandplay, for many years, integrating them through the lense of countertransference. She has intensively researched the subjective experience of the psychotherapist within particular transference/countertransference fields of experiencing, including fields of relational trauma and presymbolized experience. In these fields, therapists may have difficulty understanding and therapeutically using their own subjective experience. Her work sheds light on this problem. Linda Cunningham has extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, characterological issues, relationships and creativity. She leads consultation/study groups on Relational Sandplay Therapy and Therapeutic Use of Countertransference in Petaluma and San Francisco. She can be reached at 1-415-346-6363 and Linda@RelationalSandplayTherapy.com.
