The Religious Ground of Jung’s Analytical Psychology

Seminar 2: Spring 2020

12 Mondays: 6:30-8:00 pm
February 10 – May 11
(excluding February 17 and April 6)

According to Jung, a fundamental aspect of being human is to be religious by nature. Homo religiosus. From his deep well of Judeo-Christian scholarship and his personal understanding of what he saw as an innate religious attitude that is a significant aspect of the human psyche, Jung was a master of finding the common ground in his ability to “translate” such texts as The Tibetan Book of the Dead, The Taoist Secret of the Golden Flower, and D.T. Suzuki’s teachings on Zen Buddhism into a psychologically oriented language, while also expanding his Western readers’ knowledge-base of their own traditions. 

This course will draw material mainly from Jung’s essays in Collected Works Volume 11, Psychology and Religion: West and East. It is intended to inform participants about the religious background of some of the general principles of Analytical Psychology and its contribution to the East-West psycho-spiritual dialogue, and will serve mental health professionals interested in the spiritual aspects of Jung’s approach to psychotherapy.

Instructor:  Royce Froehlich, PhD, MDiv, LCSW

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe how Jung’s early personal life influenced his theoretical understanding of psychological phenomena.
  • Assess Jung’s contribution to the understanding of the human psyche and its value for clinical treatment today.
  • Discuss some key concepts in Jung’s Analytical Psychology within a context of inter-faith dialogue.
  • Critique the term homo religiosus.
  • Describe connecting links between Jung’s analytic paradigm and the cure of souls (the root meaning of psycho-therapy).

Sacrifice and Individuation

5 consecutive Thursdays, 6:30 – 8:10 pm    Beginning April 11

Instructor: David Walczyk, EdD, LP

“Sacrifice is nothing other than the production of sacred things.” — Georges Bataille

Sacrifice, in its spiritual sense, is defined as something you give up for the hope of something better. If the purpose of sacrifice is something better, the production of something sacred, then why is it so hard? In this class, we seek to answer that question and also ask the larger question, what is the relationship between sacrifice and livingthe process of individuation? Our interest is not intellectual or abstract but rather practical, existential, and relational. Participants are encouraged to consider their relationship to sacrifice and its purpose in their individuation and in the individuation of those they care about.

We begin by grounding sacrifice historically asking the questions why did it develop and how has its meaning and purpose changed over time? We then sharpen our focus and consider sacrifice and its relationship to individuation by engaging with the work of Carl Jung and Georges Bataille. With a firm grounding in the history and fundamentals of sacrifice and individuation, we consider how that relationship manifests itself in our time: first, collectively in the wellness industry and then personally in clinical practice.

Natural Cycles, Natural Symbols: Individuation as Ecology

Saturday, April 13, 2019
9:30 am– 4:30 pm

A daylong seminar led by Melanie Starr Costello, PhD

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

By aligning psycho-spiritual maturation with the natural process, our program envisages individuation as a path that embraces the inextricable relationship between life and death principles and assents to Creation as mystery. We will confront dominant cultural constructs that alienate us from the body and obstruct psyche’s connection with the non-human world. In hope of redress, we construct an alternative model of consciousness, envisaging a nature-based-symbolic attitude that reconnects us with our roots in nature, conjoining mind, soul, and cosmos.

Dr. Costello demonstrates how our environmental crisis and our collective fear of death stem from the same ideological root. She discusses our fear of change and our fear of loss—anxieties that stymie the spirit and inhibit growth. She explores how changes in our bodies and in our life-circumstances may be harnessed as a motive-force for reconnecting us to our roots in nature, opening us to mystery, and honing our intentions in regard to self, others, and our work in the world.

Images, stories, and dream analysis will throw light on the archetypal forces—both fierce and generative—that promote psycho-spiritual maturation. Special attention will be given to the recurrence of cosmological and elemental themes in dreams of individuals undergoing life-transition.

To promote awareness of the link between maturation of consciousness and our acceptance of natural cycles, Dr. Costello will guide us through a life-narrative review. We will discuss the varied archetypal energies that inform our identities and chosen place in the world. We consider: what is the purpose of longevity? What is wisdom? We conclude by reconstructing our portrait of the individuated person, elucidating the nature-based dimensions of social, family and spiritual life.

Trauma and the Healing Power of the Image

5 consecutive Mondays, 6:00–7:40 pm  Beginning April 8

Instructor: Gary Brown, LCSW, LP

Human life is trauma, at best pain and pleasure mixed fine . . . More often, “nasty, brutish, and short” (Hobbes, “Leviathan”). Religion and, later, psychoanalytic work addressed this fact of life.  War and what was then called shell shock, as well as hysteria, were some of the early foci of the newly discovered and developed psychotherapy.  At the heart of this was psyche, the mysterious function which develops images from the pains and pleasures of life and allows meaning to happen. Though Freud enunciated what he called the Unconscious, Jung scientifically proved its existence via the Word Association Test, bringing Freud and psychoanalysis international attention.  Jung’s work became a quest for how the newly-discovered psychotherapy worked.  In a private conversation with an analyst, Jung said that history would record that he had discovered the “healing power of the image.”  We will explore in this class what Jung discovered:  that images contain and hold affect, the experience of feeling or emotion.

The Red Book: An Encounter with Jung’s Words and Images

Saturday, June 8, 2019
9:30am – 4:30pm

A daylong seminar led by Sanford L. Drob, PhD
Note: This is a repeat of the March 30, 2019 workshop.

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

Please note that if you received CE contact hours for Dr. Drob’s March 30, 2019, workshop on the Red Book, you cannot receive credit for this workshop. It is the same program.

This workshop will provide an introduction to Jung’s Red Book (Liber Novus) and a meditation upon a selection of Jung’s painted images. Our primary goals will be to understand the relevance of The Red Book to personal growth, the psychotherapeutic process, and the pursuit of life-meaning. We will examine the Red Book in the context of Jung’s earlier and later works, his personal crisis in relationship to Freud, and the work’s place in the history of ideas. Amongst the topics to be considered: meaning and the absurd, chaos and order, the death of the inner hero, masculine and feminine, shadow and persona, good and evil, reason and unreason, sanity and madness, “accepting all,” God and self, and the guidance of one’s soul.

  2. Describe the clinical relevance of Jung’s Red Book narrative to the process of individuation and the practice of psychotherapy.
  3. Describe the relevance of such notions as the “spirit of the depths,” sense and nonsense, and explanation vs. understanding, the soul, the (psychological) desert, the death of the hero, to the psychotherapeutic process
  4. Explain the importance that Jung places on integrating the masculine and feminine and good and evil on the process of individuation and clinical work.
  5. Demonstrate an understanding of Jung’s notions of Spiritual Descent, and the value of Madness and Doubt, and their importance to psychotherapy.

The Master Archetype: Integrating the Opposites in Life, Thought and Psychotherapy

Seminar #1: Fall 2018-2019
12 Wednesdays: 7:00- 8:30pm
September 12 – December 19
(excluding September 19 and November 7 and 21)

It can be said that the interdependence and union of opposites is the basis of Jung's psychology, the key to the practice of psychotherapy, and the "master archetype," or most general principle, of both life and thought. In this workshop we will trace the history of this archetype in mysticism, alchemy, philosophy, and psychology and explore Jung's thinking on coincidentia oppositorum from The Red Book to Mysterium Coniunctionis. Jung's understanding of this archetype will be considered against the background of his study of alchemy and will be contextualized in relation to the history of both eastern and western spirituality and thought, including Taoism, Hinduism, the Kabbalah, Christian mysticism, Hegel Nietzsche, Freud, and Derrida. Our discussion will focus on how opposition is central to both individuation and the psychotherapeutic process. We will examine Jung's reflections on such oppositions as conscious and unconscious, meaning and absurdity, reason and imagination, life and death, persona and shadow, individual and collective, and anima and animus. Our discussion will range over Jung's views on a wide range of topics, including the self, symbols, art, the imagination, dreams, God, gender, and the meaning of life.

This seminar will consider how the conflict and integration of opposites is a critical factor in our own and our patient's lives, as well as in art and other creative activity. We will see how the integration of opposites serves both as a foundation for a unified "self" and a unified psychology and psychotherapy, one in which different perspectives upon or "maps" of the human psyche are understood as modeling aspects of an integrated whole.

In the course of this seminar we will reflect upon the possibility of living a conscious and aware life when our thoughts, actions and feelings have unconscious determinants; affirming life in the face of death and accepting death in the midst of life; living with and embracing those aspects of ourselves that we find repugnant and even self-destructive; balancing order and disorder in a world and psyche that emerges from chaos; achieving meaning while at the same time recognizing and embracing the absurd; and, pursuing the good while recognizing its interconnection with the inevitability and horror of evil.

Instructor: Sanford L. Drob, PhD

Learning Objectives:

  1. Develop a general knowledge of the relational dynamics that operate within the therapeutic field: reductively and synthetic/purposively, personally and archetypally.
  2. Observe demonstrations of the relational dynamics through role-play.
  3. Discuss the therapeutic alliance and various forms through which the T/C are expressed in a session.
  4. Apply Jung's theory of psychic energy to shared T/C experiences and resistances.
  5. Demonstrate how archetypal affects and symbols are experienced within the T/C field.
  6. Demonstrate understanding of T/C dynamics through presentation of a case.

The Shadow

5 consecutive Mondays, 6:00–7:40pm  Beginning October 1

Instructor: Gary Brown, LCSW, LP

At the same time that the 19th century West was increasingly intrigued by the notion of “the double” (e.g. stories such as Frankenstein and The Secret Sharer), the new field of psychology was being born. Jung and others realized that much natural phenomena that had been labeled esoteric and occult was actually, or also, psychological. The “royal road” in this new field was found by the new psychoanalysts in dreams. Jung researched approximately 1,400 dreams of his patients and those of his students each year and found there were recurring structures with consistent aspects, which appeared as the “persons” of the psyche in dreams.

In his researches in psyche, Jung began to see a topological model. Much as Freud had discovered ego, super-ego, and id, Jung found persona-ego-shadow-anima/animus and Self. These often appeared as objects or persons in dreams and were often projected onto people and situations in the outer world.

Shadow is everywhere, yet, as we will see in the model, it is often buried in our studies, given less attention than it deserves, its importance and its archetypal depth overlooked. Shadow’s location in the Jungian model will be explored until we reach the depths where we find its connection to the Self.

Transference | Countertransference

Seminar #2: Spring 2019
12 Wednesdays: 7:00 – 8:30pm
February 6 – May 1 (excluding April 17)

“The transference phenomenon is an inevitable feature of every thorough analysis . . .”
C.G. Jung, CW 16, p. 283

This course will provide an overview of major clinical issues involved in working in the transference/countertransference field. The class will focus on practical clinical application of theoretical concepts. To that end we will look at both Jungian and psychoanalytic writings as applied to actual cases. We will assess various forms of communication through which analyst and analysand interact and experience one another. We will work with the analyst’s countertransference as a vital therapeutic resource.

The course will cover the following topics:
  • Overview of the changing concepts of transference/countertransference from Freud and Jung to current formulations of the Inter-relational Field
  • Projective processes in T/C
  • Frame
  • Multiple modes of consciousness through which we perceive and communicate T/C reactions in the therapeutic field
  • Dreams, Active Imagination and Metaphors in T/C
  • Regression
  • Resistance
  • Intense affects in T/C such as love, hate, envy, etc.
  • T/C with Borderline and Narcissistic patients

Instructor: Irina Doctoroff, LMFT, LP

Learning Objectives:
  1. Develop a general knowledge of the relational dynamics that operate within the therapeutic field: reductively and synthetic/purposively, personally and archetypally.
  2. Observe demonstrations of the relational dynamics through role-play.
  3. Discuss the therapeutic alliance and various forms through which the T/C are expressed in a session.
  4. Apply Jung’s theory of psychic energy to shared T/C experiences and resistances.
  5. Demonstrate how archetypal affects and symbols are experienced within the T/C field.
  6. Demonstrate understanding of T/C dynamics through presentation of a case.

Trauma and Dissociated States: A Jungian Perspective

5 consecutive Tuesdays. 7:00–8:40pm. Beginning October 2 
Instructor: Harry Fogarty, PhD

Understandings of trauma and its psychological consequences are central to Psychoanalytic Theory and Practice. While reviewing different historical approaches to traumatic states, our focus will be on a Jungian approach to trauma and dissociation, as distinct from repression. From a Jungian perspective, dissociation is what we are not aware of on a conscious level that is retained by our bodies in a preverbal sense. Specific links between trauma and somatic states, “embodiment,” will be explored. In particular we will consider shifts in therapeutic approaches as suggested by Schore, Wilkinson, Levine, and Kalsched. Our conversations will be rooted in suggested readings and clinical material.
Note: This course is held at 305 West 107th Street, Suite N

Painting the Psyche: Wonders of the Dream World

5 consecutive Thursdays,  6:30–8:10 pm. Beginning October 4

Instructor: Maria Taveras, LCSW

This workshop on “Painting the Psyche” will be an opportunity to experience and explore archetypal images that emerge from what Jung calls the creative imagination. We will delve into the depths of the psyche to render in paint a visual of the dream image and to amplify what the dream world so wondrously reflects to us. With watercolors as our medium and paintbrushes as our instruments, we will depict a dimension that is extraordinarily difficult to discern. We will rediscover the dream world and give form, in detail, to its expressions and engage in an in-depth elaboration of what it so profoundly implies and portends. Together as a group, we will share our felt experiences of the creative process. Watercolors, brushes, and paper will be provided.
Fee for materials: add additional $20 to tuition fee.
