Upcoming Classes

The Meaning of Life

Continuing Education: Fall 2019

5 consecutive Thursdays, 6:00 – 7:30 pm
Beginning October 3
Instructor: Sanford L. Drob, PhD

7.5 CE contact hours for licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists

Jung held that psychotherapy involves more than just the relief of symptoms and can assist individuals in achieving individuation and making a deeper connection with life-meaning. In this class, we will examine philosophical and psychological conceptions of “the meaning of life” from the Bible and ancient Greece to the present day, consider the relationship between psyche, life-meaning, and value, and explore the relevance of life-meaning to individuation and the psychotherapeutic process.

Jung’s ambivalence between existential and archetypal views of life meaning will be discussed and his concept of the “objective psyche” will be seen as an effort to provide a bridge between personal and cosmic meaning. The relevance of Gnostic, alchemical and Kabbalistic symbols to life-meaning will be explored and selected writings of Jung and Erich Neumann on these topics will be examined. Finally, we will see how Jung’s archetypes of the collective unconscious can be interpreted as a system of meaning and value which provides a comprehensive understanding of cosmic and personal life meaning, one that is expressed in symbols and embodied in the world’s mythological traditions, and which gives considerable latitude for individual choice.

Music, Art and Imagery: Pathways to Psychological and Spiritual Growth

Saturday Workshops

Saturday, November 23, 2019
9:30 am– 4:30 pm

A daylong seminar led by Jane Selinske, EdD, LCSW, LP

 

"The human psyche is the womb of all the arts… and creative art has its roots in the immensity of the unconscious.”
—C.G. Jung, CW 15, Par 134

Contact hours: 6 CE contact hours for Licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists for this program.

 

C.G. Jung’s confrontation with his unconscious led him to enter the presence of a living encounter with the unconscious.  Jung developed his theories through the drawing of individual mandalas and sketches and believed the drawing and dialogue was a tool for one’s individuation process.  The result was his monumental achievement in art demonstrated in The Red Book. While Jung had a keen appreciation for art and drawing he had a complexed relationship to music.  His lack of exploration with music was due to the intense projections that arose when he listened to music.  An exploration of Jung’s symbolic process as it applies to art, music and image making will be discussed through Jungian Psychological Theory. This workshop is didactic and experiential and will teach participants how to integrate art, music and image making into their personal and clinical work. Participants will learn how to integrate the unconscious with the conscious through the use of the creative arts and will realize the potential pathway for psychological and spiritual growth.

Learning Objectives

  • Describe the importance of the objective nature of psyche’s images according to C. G. Jung.
  • Discuss the significance of the unconscious language of images and symbols as therapeutic and spiritual guides.
  • Summarize Jung’s Map of the Psyche as the basis for understanding an individual’s psychological struggle for consciousness.
  • Describe the different pathways to psychological and spiritual growth such as:
    Active Imagination
    Amplification
    Personal Associations to dreams and symbols
    Dreams/Images
    Music/Art
  • Describe how to engage the psyche through imaginal techniques using music, art and images.
  • Apply music listening and art expression experiences to reinforce the Jungian theoretical clinical learning.
  • Apply C.G. Jung’s theoretical insights to personal and clinical examples.

Jane Selinske, EdD, LCSW, LP, MT-BC, is a Jungian analyst, a practitioner of Mandala Assessment and a Board Certified Music Therapist.  She is a faculty member of the C.G. Jung Foundation, the C.G. Jung Institute of New York and the Institute for Expressive Analysis of New York and also serves as President of the Jung Foundation.

The Fortunate Fall: How Leaning into Failure Can Lead to Transformation

FIRST TUESDAY FORUM

Tuesday, October 1, 2019
12:30 – 1:30 pm

Speaker: Christopher Cooper, MS

We live in a success-obsessed culture. “Failure is not an option” has become a creed and rallying cry. Toxic corporate cultures abound in which achievement is rewarded, while mistakes are not tolerated. Most of us were encouraged to lean into our strengths from an early age. Such a one-sided, unidimensional approach to life can, however, stunt our psychological growth and limit our potential. Our greatest gifts and treasures, it turns out, are not easily accessible, but lie hidden, like gems, in the shadowy depths of the self. It is only when we falter, fail, fall that we end up stumbling upon these hidden treasures, our innermost truths. In this lecture, we will explore different manifestations of the archetype of “The Fall” and how our imperfections can serve as a gateway to uncovering the richest aspects of our beings. 

Christopher Cooper, MS, is a recent graduate of the C.G. Jung Institute of New York psychoanalytic training program. He also holds a Masters in Narrative Medicine from Columbia University. In addition to his psychoanalytic pursuits, Chris is also a strategic planning executive who has worked for some of the world’s most respected advertising agencies, including Ogilvy, Ogilvy CommonHealth, Saatchi Wellness, Digitas, G2 and Wolff-Olins. His industry experience spans a diverse range of industry sectors, including health and wellness, specialty pharmaceuticals, hotel and hospitality, cable/MSO, and entertainment.

No reservations required, suggested contribution fee of $2.00. All are welcome.

Art, Active Imagination, and the Archetype of Creativity

Seminar 1: Fall 2019

12 Wednesdays: 7:00 - 8:30 pm
September 18 – December 18
(excluding October 9 and November 27)

This advanced seminar will explore the relation among three vitally important dimensions of Jungian psychoanalysis – art, active imagination, and the archetype of creativity – and their importance to the psyche both clinically and culturally. 

Although Jung expressed ambivalence toward art (especially toward modern art), he was himself an impressive artist who regarded with respect the therapeutic value of art as an expression of the unconscious.  As the book The Art of C.G. Jung beautifully documents, Jung painted in pastel and oil, carved in wood and stone, and profoundly appreciated the aesthetic aspect of the psyche.  Jung said explicitly of Jungian psychoanalysis: “It is an art.”  

Active imagination is the technique that Jung invented for actively evoking images from the unconscious and then actively engaging those images in a dialogue.  There are differences between this method and Freud’s technique of free association and their clinical applications in the analysis of the psyche and the cultural value in the creation of art. Jung’s method deliberately induces an altered state of consciousness that provides access to the radically original, innermost sources of creativity.  The Red Book comprises the experiments that Jung conducted in active imagination and the art that he created from those experiences.  It demonstrates the superb quality of artistry of which Jung was personally capable.     

While there are different archetypes in the unconscious, and especially in dreams, the archetype of creativity is perhaps the most important in the individuation process.  We will identify those archetypes and learn how to access and activate the archetype of creativity. 


Instructor: Maria Taveras, LCSW

Note: Two sessions of the seminar will include drawing and painting by participants of images from dreams.  There is a materials fee of $25.

Learning Objectives:

  • Explain the importance of art and creativity to the psyche both clinically and culturally.
  • Summarize Jung’s ambivalent, controversial attitudes and valuable opinions about art, modern art, aesthetics, and creativity in both theory and practice.
  • Explain the difference between Freud’s technique of free association and Jung’s technique of active imagination, the clinical application of these methods in the analysis of the psyche, and the cultural value of these methods in the creation of art.
  • Explain how to induce the altered state of consciousness that constitutes active imagination and how to apply these methods both clinically and culturally to vital issues of artistry and creativity.
  • Define Jung’s concept of “archetype.”
  • Identify different archetypes in the unconscious and especially in dreams.,
  • Explain how to access and activate the archetype of creativity.

The drive to “know thyself” is hardwired into our very being. This journey with and to ourselves is what Jung called Individuation. Our life task is to confront ourselves as we explore our potentials, and our gifts, toward an experience of our soul. However, early life knocks us down with hurts and wounds block our way in this task. We hide parts of ourselves because it is safer.  We deem certain parts unacceptable and we push them away.  Part of our individuation journey to locate and recover these long-lost parts of ourselves to rediscover life, and the experience of SOUL. 

In this interactive workshop, we will dive into the shadow and befriending the parts of ourselves that we have lost.  In the honest and courageous task of working with ourselves, we find life energy and our destiny. We will engage in practical exercises that will deepen students' awareness of themselves and the individuation journey.  Students will be able to incorporate the material into their daily lives and practices afterwards to live more authentic and compassionate lives.  

Learning Objectives

  • Discuss the concept of the shadow as it appears in our lives and the lives of others
  • Identify the shadow through film and experiential exercises
  • Utilize the psychological concept of integrity in working with the shadow
  • Apply self-compassion and heartfelt communication in moving from the shadow to an experience of the Soul

Holy Longing: Spirituality and the Religious Attitude in the Psychology of C.G. Jung

5 consecutive Mondays, 5:15-6:45 pm
Beginning June 29
Instructor: Royce Froehlich, PhD, MDiv, LCSW-R

The course title takes its name from a poem by JW Goethe, who provided C.G. Jung with great inspiration in the pursuit of expressions of the psyche’s inclination toward wholeness in its variety of forms (archetypal patterns), with special attention to manifestations of the coming together of opposites, the unio mystica in religious traditions. This led Jung to be able to address, in his unique way, what was being described already in his time as a spiritual malaise in the modern world, which he addressed through personal reflection and a lifetime's dedication to the study of the long history of what R. Otto called “The Idea of the Holy.”

This course will delve into some of Jung’s writing on matters of religion, soul, and spirit that are meant to inform and inspire us to lead more of a psychologically balanced, individuated life. Classes will follow the trajectory of Jung’s development of his theory of wholeness. Informed by readings from the Collected Works and other writers on religions East & West, we will see how his own spiritual crisis, described in The Red Book and Memories Dreams, Reflections, affected his interest in what he called certain rare states of consciousness. A multimedia (PowerPoint) format of images and recordings provide a dynamic and engaging framework for the instructor’s online presentation.

Learning Objectives:

On completion of this class, you will be able to:

  1. Assess Jung’s contribution to the understanding of the human psyche and its value for clinical treatment.
  2. Discuss some key concepts in Jung’s Analytical Psychology within a religious context.
  3. Describe and discuss with greater understanding of the term depth psychology.
  4. Describe the connecting links between Jung’s analytic paradigm and its application to the field of Ethics.

Intensive Program 2: The Shadow

July 15-19, 2019

In our second week we will explore aspects of the Shadow in mythology, social and political movements, individuation, and culture and media.  We begin this week with the story of Medusa and the healing aspect of the shadow. We will examine the masculine shadow in “Sir Gawain and the Green Knight” and how this archetype can serve as an initiator for young men. On the third day we branch out to shadow elements in collective movements such as #MeToo, MAGA and Black Lives Matter as appeals to be heard rather than despised.  We then suggest ways to befriend the shadow and find soul. The week concludes with a look at “Utopia’s Shadow” and what Jung had to say about modern media and mass suggestion and “generalized media disorder.”

INTENSIVE PROGRAM 2: The Shadow

Monday, July 15
9:00– 10:00 am

Registration, Welcome and Orientation
10:00 am-12:30pm, 1:30-4:00 pm

Medusa, Shadow of the Victim

The story of Medusa, with its long history in film, psychology and mythological studies, has been seen as depicting feminine rage, the Nasty Woman, and a rape narrative.  For this class, we will examine the story of Medusa as a tale that depicts the making and healing of an aspect of shadow. We will explore the meaning of shadow and its effects on our lives, especially on the psyche of the unconscious victim. The Medusa myth proves particular instructive in that it demonstrates the etiology and trajectory towards healing.

The Archetype of the Chthonic Masculine Shadow
in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a poem, a romance, a fairytale for adults that was written down around 1400 in England by an unknown author. The two main protagonists in this story are the youthful rising star, Sir Gawain, nephew of King Arthur, and champion of Queen Guinevere.  The other is the Green Knight, a mysterious “marvel” from the Land of Fairie, the Otherworld.  He is the initiating dark god, and comes with transformative potential for this youthful knight.  Chthonic in nature, and originating from deep within the earth, he blows in like a mighty storm, and transforms life through shape shifting events. The Green Knight symbolizes masculine fertility and instinct.  He is the indestructible life force. At the celebration of Mid-Winter he boldly rides on horseback into the court carrying a holy branch in one hand, and an axe in the other.  From there he proceeds to challenge King Arthur to the “beheading game.”  Silence fills the halls, as Sir Gawain steps forward to champion his king.

When this generative force of the Green Knight erupts into life something extraordinary and earth shaking is going to happen—something instinctive. The order of things-as-they-are is about to be brought down, reshaped, and recreated for the man or woman who is in its path.  Gawain accepts the Fairie’s challenge.  Little does he realize that he has just opened the door to the dark night of the soul, the night sea journey.  From this point forward his identity and his assumptions about masculinity and manhood will be reshaped and transformed from the inside out.

What can we learn from Sir Gawain and the Green Knight about the chthonic masculine shadow as initiator and guide of men from youth into mature masculinity? Where do we find this fertilizing and generative archetype today? And once we have found it, how can we be creative and find ways to integrate it into our individual life and collective meaning system? During this workshop we use the trajectory of the story as our guide. In addition to this fairy tale we will work with other stories, dreams, current events, and personal experience to elaborate on this question.

The Disruptive as Dialogue Partner

Arising into contemporary awareness, many collective movements present as “Shadow” longing to be heard rather than despised or identified with - #MeToo, MAGA, Yellow Vests, Black Lives Matter, Sexual Abuse Victims, Displaced Persons, Asian “non-recognition,” and so forth. We shall draw upon Jung and other theoretical perspectives on the “Shadow” so that we may enter more fully into a necessary “intergroup dialogue.”  Location: TBA

Befriending the Shadow and Finding Soul

The drive to "know thyself" is hardwired into our very being. This journey with and to ourselves is what Jung called Individuation. Our life task is to confront ourselves as we explore our potentials, and our gifts, toward an experience of our soul. However, early life knocks us down with hurts and wounds block our way in this task. We hide parts or ourselves because it is safer.  We deem certain parts unacceptable and we push them away.  Part of our individuation journey to locate and recover these long-lost parts ourselves to rediscover life, and the experience of SOUL.

In this day-long interactive workshop, we will dive into the shadow and befriending the parts of ourselves that we have lost.  In the honest and courage task of working with ourselves, we find life energy and our destiny. We will engage in practical exercises that will deepen student’s awareness of themselves and individuation journey.  Students will be able to incorporate the material into their daily lives afterwards to live more authentic and compassionate lives.

Utopia’s Shadow, Inside the Wall and onto the Net:
Jung and the Mediated Spirit of Our Time

Jung was wary of “the most modern media of mass suggestion” because of his doubt about our inability to handle their effects: “We are the danger, psyche is the great danger!” With a concern for the eventual breakdown of the individual in our “society of the spectacle,” this class will explore Jung’s critique of “modern man,” and review psychotherapeutic treatment skills for the symptomatology of “generalized media disorder.”

Coniunctio in Christiana Morgan’s Visions

Tuesday, March 5, 2019
12:30 – 1:30pm
Speaker: Ilona Melker, LCSW

Christiana Morgan analyzed with C.G. Jung in 1926. Her visions were contained in three volumes of manuscripts on which Jung’s four-year-long Visions Seminars were based.  In the visions the archetype of the dark, earthy, erotic and destructive aspects of the feminine were all present and Jung recognized this.   What Jung did not address in the seminars was that the direction of the visions was moving toward coniunctio, the uniting of the masculine with the feminine as opposites. Our visual explorations will be some unexplored images of coniunctio in the middle volume of Christiana’s manuscripts that Jung did not touch upon.

Ilona Melker, LCSW,is a Jungian Psychoanalyst and Certified Sandplay Therapist. She has taught and lectured at the C.G. Jung Foundation and at national conferences.  She has contributed to professional journals.  She is in private practice in Manhattan and Princeton, New Jersey.

Inner Authority: Its Definition & Its Development

Saturday, May 4, 2019 9:30 am– 4:30 pm

A daylong seminar led by
Julie Bondanza, PhD

Contact hours: 6 CE contact hours for Licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists for this program.

“ . . . in most cases instinctive tendencies assert themselves for or against one’s subjective interests no matter whether an outside authority approves or not. The inner authority does not need to be consulted first, as it is present at the outset in the intensity of the tendencies struggling for decision.”
—C.G. Jung, Aion

Sociologists describe three types of authority: legal/rational, which is based on enacted rules and regulations such as in government or other established institutions; traditional, which is based on long established cultural patterns; and charismatic authority, which is based on a person’s ability that can inspire devotion and obedience.  But in this workshop we will focus on the development of inner authority through which we can become and stand for who we truly are.  We will use myths, fairy tales, dreams and personal experience to elaborate this idea.

Julie Bondanza, PhD, is a Jungian analyst and licensed psychologist in private practice in the Metropolitan Washington DC area.  She is Vice President of the C.G. Jung Foundation and a graduate of the C.G. Jung Institute of New York, where she is member of the teaching faculty and past Curriculum chair. She is also on the faculty of The Interregional Society of Jungian Analysts, for whom she has frequently taught. She is a member of the Jungian Analysts of Washington Association, where she is a past Director of Education and where she is a frequent instructor.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Define three different types of authority.
  2. Differentiate inner authority from the sociological definitions of authority.
  3. Compare and contrast inner authority and individuation.
  4. Use fairy tales and/ or mythology to describe the path of the development of inner authority.
  5. Describe an example of the development of inner authority.
