What is Jungian analysis?

 

Jungian analysis begins by recognizing the potential in each individual and working toward allowing the person to develop him or herself fully. This will involve looking at past experiences and becoming aware of how those experiences have affected the individual and the way they continue to prevent us from living fulfilled lives.  Techniques in Jungian analysis include one-to-one conversations on a weekly basis, sharing and discussing dreams.  Expression of the contents of the imagination, which can occur in many ways, is an important part of Jungian analysis.

Difficulties such as depression or anxiety may result partly from a lack of development of other elements of the personality, such as assertiveness or the willingness to take risks and engage with life; this will, in turn, usually be related to the person’s life experience and family history. Sometimes the issues relate to past or recent trauma or loss, such as sexual or emotional abuse, bereavement, torture, forced emigration or accident, as well as issues related to retirement, divorce, aging and redundancy.
