TAROT AND PSYCHOTHERAPY - DO THEY BELONG TOGETHER?
#430: TAROT AND PSYCHOTHERAPY - DO THEY BELONG TOGETHER?
In this episode, I sit down with Michelle Nolan—tarot therapist and intuitive guide—to explore how tarot can complement psychotherapy. We discuss using ancient archetypes for shadow work, navigating ethical dilemmas, and why therapists are turning to tools like tarot to help clients heal. Whether you’re curious about blending intuition with psychology or want fresh approaches for stuck clients, this conversation offers practical insights you won’t find in textbooks.
