Alice - through Fire and Water

Anselm Keussen

Anselm Keussen is a Dr. med./ MD as a General Practioner, specialized in Depth-Psychology based Psychotherapy and is licensed as a Doctor for Psychotherapy, working in his practice in Munich, Germany.

After finishing his university training in medical sciences (LMU Munich and one year of 4th year electives at St. Louis University Medical School, in neurology, neurophysiology lab and neonatal intensve care unit), he joined the COLOMAN therapy center - out in nature near Wasserburg and in Munich - as a medical psychotherapist (1981).

While studying in St. Louis, he also met his first wife. Later they had a daughter together, who is a mother herself by now, married and working as a teacher.

The COLOMAN therapy center in southern Bavaria was smaller, but similar to the Californian Esalen-institute, and Janov's Primal Therapy and Encounter groups were mainly used in the beginning; only to be followed by Rebirthing, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis = TA and Core-/ Bioenergetics as well as Rolfing, Postural Integration and various forms of Gentle Massage.

Later Hakomi, video-assisted work and the more systemic, or rather hypno-systemic, approaches of Milton Erikson's work, Family Therapy work, NLP and Bert Hellinger's Systemic Family Constellations were also employed.

Besides, a host of spiritual programmes and groups were going on, from Christian Meditation practices to ZEN and Shamanism (dancing, drumming, sweat-lodges etc.), including work with a samadhi tank as well. He worked there from 1981-1994.

During this time, he wrote his dissertation on: "The Meta-Model of Psychoanalysis -
An Actualisation of Freud's ´Project of a Psychology for Neurologists´ from the perspective of modern psychology, neurophysiology and clinical psychotherapy" (1984).

Later on, he also specialized in Depth Psychology based Psychotherapy and started his own practice as a licensed Medical Psychotherapist (1991).
