About

Certified Jungian analyst and licensed marriage and family therapist Holly Swanson practices psychotherapy at 317 14th St UNIT E, Del Mar, CA 92014, bringing a rare depth-psychology approach to San Diego's North County coast. Holly earned her LMFT license in California in 2012 and then pursued advanced training at the C. G. Jung Study Center of Southern California, graduating in 2021 as a certified Jungian analyst. That four-year post-licensure credential represents one of the most rigorous advanced training paths in the psychotherapy field, equipping her with specialized tools for exploring the unconscious mind, dream analysis, and the symbolic patterns that shape personal identity and relationships. The professional building at 317 14th Street serves as a concentrated mental health corridor in Del Mar, with fellow family counselor Jenny Ellingsen also practicing in the same complex, along with integrative pediatric and psychiatric providers on adjacent floors. Holly's clinical approach centers on creating a safe, nurturing environment where clients can examine thoughts, feelings, and lived experiences through the lens of analytical psychology. She works with individuals and couples on issues including life transitions, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, and the search for meaning and purpose that often intensifies during midlife. Holly's Jungian orientation distinguishes her from the cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused models more commonly found in coastal San Diego practices, making her a sought-after option for clients drawn to depth work. Those looking for body-oriented healing to complement their psychotherapy sessions can explore options like Body Being in Balance Massage Del Mar, which offers therapeutic massage services within the same community. Prospective clients can reach Holly at (858) 888-5191 to schedule an initial consultation.
