Hermes’ Web

Toys n’ Tools for Change

Welcome to Hermes' Web —

where the power of play meets the essence of change!

In a world filled with complexities, Hermes' Web & Toys are essential —

They serve as the tools for transformation, offering a unique approach to communication and connection.

What is Hermes’ Web?

The Web is a simple, dynamic, colorful, and playful communication tool that transcends barriers inhibiting the effectiveness of education, therapy, and treatment.

It captures the imagination of clients, bridging the traditional gap between therapist and client. One client aptly dubbed it “the equalizer” for its ability to level the playing field, enabling clients to engage more deeply in the therapeutic process.

Designed to counteract the challenges faced by clients lacking insight, concrete thinkers, and those struggling with learning deficits, The Web serves as a therapeutic adjunct. It appeals to clients' visual and tactile senses, igniting their imagination and common sense.

Compact, straightforward, and open to continuous innovation, The Web seamlessly applies to diverse areas, including family values, work with offenders, addressing domestic abuse, addiction, adolescents, and more.

Whether used as a standalone therapy tool integrated into an existing treatment program or as part of the comprehensive Web Sight Program, The Web offers a versatile and effective approach to fostering positive change.

WHY HERMES’ WEB IS NEEDED IN THE WORLD.

Enter Hermes’ Web, a tangible tool designed to unravel the mysteries of behavior that deviates from the norm and elucidate abstract psychological concepts.

Amidst a world fraught with challenges, Hermes' Web & Toys stand as beacons of hope and understanding. We recognize the imperative for accessible tools that address diverse aspects such as family dynamics, political/cultural issues, values, and communication.

Our mission is to dismantle complex concepts and present them in easily digestible formats that cater to various learning styles. Through the use of images, film clips, action figures, and captivating stories, we empower you to navigate the intricacies of life with newfound understanding

  • Wise & Compassionate Teachings

    "The Hermes Web, along with Jerry's wise and compassionate teachings, has been part of my personal and professional life for nearly 20 years now. I find joy in them every day. The archetypal symbolism of the Web, coupled with its tangibility and easily understandable language, initiates transformative processes in my clients even before a session truly starts. Despite its apparent simplicity, the Web and its paradigms are rooted in profound psychology and build on Jerry's decades of hard-core psychological experience. No fanciness or big words. Just effectiveness. Have I already mentioned how wholeheartedly I recommend both the Web and Jerry's wisdom?"

  • A Bridge Between a Therapist & A Client.

    “I’m so impressed with the possibilities that these Hermes’ Web tools offer. I've been assisting creator Jerry Fjerkenstad with video production, and in the process, I've witnessed how they can create a solid bridge between a therapist and a client. Imagine - actually connecting instead of just getting that glazed look of “Are we done yet?”

    Who would have thought a simple figurine or toy object could be so loaded with symbolism, backstory, and divergent alleys of association? Well, I guess that’s where the process starts - a masterful interpreter who not only uses these new techniques but has the daring to really open someone up and try to help. God knows so many of us need help... “

  • A Journey of Self-Discovery

    “With the Hermes Web, Jerry adeptly navigates through complex and often intimidating human emotions and psychological needs. The Web, both simple and multifaceted, mirrors the intricacies of the human psyche. Its vibrant colors and moving parts draw one's focus away from the self just long enough to embark on a journey of self-discovery through this remarkable tool of human exploration.”

Who is

Hermes?

The God Of The Crossroads: One of the Greek pantheon, Hermes is the connector, the God of the crossroads. All things meet on Hermes’ ground: sexuality, business, ethics, medicine, and criminality. Hermes weaves them together. He can also be invisible – his influence is not always seen, nor are his movements. When silence descends, Hermes has probably entered – inside, people are making connections.

Hermes is non-authoritarian, an equalizer, creating symmetry and equality in relationships and politics. His aim is not power but imagination and connection. He is also the friendliest of the gods.

Today, in a time of divisiveness, deception and conflict, Hermes’ is the ultimate guide for re-connecting polarized realities and drawing together life-enhancing coalitions. Hermes’ is also a master of the shadow world - those elements we prefer to ignore, but which tend to be the tail that wags the dog when they are not properly attended to.
