A Live Global Internet Seminar
**
Jungian psychotherapy is a secular method of dealing with emotional and mental problems facing modern individuals, but it also includes a specifically spiritual perspective in the work and welcomes the emergence of numinous experience into the consulting room as part of the individuation process. The experience of the numinous is seen as an important feature of attending to the needs of the soul and is indeed a key instigator of healing and the generation of a meaningful sense of identity. Hence the use of the term ‘soul’ in this seminar.
In this 3 hour live seminar, Dr. Murray Stein will elucidate the fundamental features of Jungian psychotherapy. This will be not only introduction to those just entering the field as Jungian therapists and a review for others who already have experience as Jungian therapists, but also a presentation of core Jungian elements for people who are considering Jungian psychotherapy for themselves. We will look at the heart of Jungian psychotherapy and its basic perspectives on the needs of the soul, the question of illness and health, and the quest for meaning and identity in a rapidly changing multicultural world.
This seminar may be viewed live from any home computer or watched at your leisure over a 3 week window. Seminar slots are limited. Register today to reserve your place.
Central questions will be looked at such as:
What is Jungian Psychotherapy and how is it similar to and different from other contemporary forms of therapy?
How do a Jungian therapist and client work together? What material do they look at?
What are the goals of Jungian psychotherapy.
