The Therapeutic Process
Jungian analysis is a psychotherapeutic process which can help individuals who are struggling, suffering and or seeking deeper meaning in life. In this process the client and analyst take a close look at, and work to better understand, the psychological and or existential issues the individual is grappling with in their life. This approach supports the client in coming to greater awareness, balance and self-agency. This process is also very creative and rich for individuals seeking deeper meaning in their lives.
Dream work and exploring symbols that arise in an individual’s consciousness can be invaluable to the balancing work of this depth psychological process.
At core, this therapeutic work most often unfolds as a ‘talk therapy’, none the less, other modalities are brought into session as needed. These might be sand tray work, drawing, painting, psycho-drama, parts work (Internal Family Systems), mindfulness practices, journaling, free-fall writing – to name the main ones.
