Jungian Dream Interpretation- Part 2

December 25, 2022January 25, 2023Webmaster

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

A dream uses an imagistic language we can decipher. This language is universal, the same as used in myths from stone-age cultures. A dream shows us the next possible step in our developing personality. It warns us if we are going astray, encourages us if we need it, or offers penetrating insights into our confusion. We work together as a team and have fun. We confirm or disconfirm each interpretation with experimental evidence. We will not work with class members’ dreams. Please bring a dream, with permission, from a family member or friend.

This course is a continuation of Part 1. Please note that you can enroll in this course without having taken Part 1.

Exploring the Widest and Most Revolutionary Applications of Jung’s Ideas

December 25, 2022January 17, 2023Webmaster

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

In this course we will take up one of the most startling, challenging, and creative statements in all of psychology. The Jungian psychologist Yoram Kaufmann, (author of The Way of the Image, the Orientational Approach to the Psyche), studied Jung’s ideas with utmost care and precision, and, deeply inspired, said he “crystallized” Jung’s ideas in a useful and practical condensed form. He called this new form “the orientational approach” and said the orientational approach, properly understood, gives us a way to comprehend all forms of psychological expression. In summarizing his findings, Dr. Kaufmann made an extraordinary capsule statement that was seen by some as contentious and startling, and by others as profoundly innovative and liberating:
“All in all, the orientational approach allows one to navigate the length and breadth of the psyche.”

In this course we will test Jung’s and Kaufmann’s ideas against what we most want to learn about our own lives: what can we learn that’s new about psychological health and well-being, about relationships, about work and self-expression, about dreams, and about the therapeutic process? We will apply the “orientational approach” to each of those topics, while keeping an eye on what we can learn about the “length and breadth” of the human psyche.

Readings will consist of handouts of excerpts from the work of Jung and Marie-Louise Von Franz. Students are requested to have their own copy of The Way of the Image which is available in book form at the C.G. Jung Foundation Book Service (call 212-697-6430 with Visa or MasterCard or visit us!) and Amazon and as an e-book from Amazon. The book store’s web page is https://www.cgjungny.org/book-service/

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

1. Summarize how Jung’s work allows us to extend the scope and depth of our understanding of the human psyche
2. Describe the role of situational awareness and context analysis in understanding psychological material such as complexes, dreams and fantasies
3. Discuss Jung’s idea of the “dominants” of the archetypes of the collective unconscious
4. Apply the “orientational approach” to everyday problems of human interaction such as the desire for relationship, and the need for self-expression at work.

Attachment and Emotional Regulation in Relationships

December 25, 2022January 25, 2023Webmaster

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

“We do as we have been done by.” – John Bowlby

“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choice to become.” – Carl Jung

Have you ever wondered how our earliest relationships and the emotional regulation strategies we develop from them during our early life influences, informs, encodes, and unconsciously determines our adult lives and relationships. If so, then you’re interested in attachment, regulation, and how our early relationships are what structure our (un)consciousness.

In this course, we’ll review forms of attachment and regulation, and examine how attachment style and capacity for affect regulation effects adult life. We’ll also delineate the biological basis, that is the neuroscience, of attachment and regulation. Pragmatically, we’ll seek to apply and then reflect on the function of attachment and regulation within our everyday life. Participants who complete the course will gain a pragmatic understanding of attachment and regulation in their own lives and the lives of those they care about.

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

1. Discern and appraise the different styles of attachment and the different styles of affect regulation
2. Comprehend how attachment style and emotional regulation is formed during early childhood
3. Perceive and identify the effects of attachment style and affect regulation on adult life and relationships
4. Grasp and explain the relationship between attachment and neuroscience
5. Grasp and explain the relationship between affect regulation and neuroscience
6. Recognize how attachment style and affect regulation informs clinical practice as a therapist and as a patient/client.

Exploring the Widest and Most Revolutionary Applications of Jung’s Ideas

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

Masculinity is in crisis. As the waning of patriarchy has eroded social norms and gender stereotypes that privileged males, increasing numbers of men in our culture are now struggling with feelings of rejection, existential angst, and uncertainty. Since the beginning of the #metoo movement, much has been written about “toxic” masculinity, insidious misogyny, and the need for collective action to stem the tide of violent acts against women. Meanwhile, the epidemic of violence erupting from isolated and alienated young men continues to dominate headlines on a seemingly daily basis. New models of authentic masculinity are desperately called for, but few exist. Now, more than ever, masculine psychological development is in need of serious reimagining. This course will explore the archetypal underpinnings of masculine psychological development to enrich clinical understanding of the maladaptive male behaviors, attitudes, ideas, and outlooks that are increasingly presenting in consulting rooms across the country and around the world.

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

1. Challenge the social norms and gender stereotypes that have placed limits on the male gender experience.
2. Distinguish archetypal patterns that underpin masculine psychological development.
3. Comprehend the centrality and symbolic importance of aggression in the masculine Individuation process.
4. Differentiate between the qualities of “authentic” masculinity and hyper masculinity
5. Identify approaches to attend to the developmental, psychological, and spiritual needs of men in clinical settings.

The Unanticipated Effects of Screens on the Adolescent Psyche

a Zoom seminar led by

CONTACT HOURS
3.5 CE contact hours for Licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists for this program. This program will not be recorded.

Boys and young men spend hours daily focusing on screens. We will explore how media in cyberspace become alternate containers for many of them in distress. We will talk about what this means for their psyche in terms of relationships and fantasies, especially their becoming fascinated with apocalyptic fantasies.

We will look at some contemporary difficulties in clinical work with male adolescents and young men. What brings them into therapy? How willing are they to engage with us?

We will discuss the role of alienation, in particular, how it shuts down access to their inner worlds. This situation leads to clinical encounters in which boys and men feel unable to even describe what is happening inside them. Ideas about psychic containment will help us to appreciate many of the therapeutic challenges that we encounter.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
The participants will be able to:

Define of the main characteristics of alienation in boys and young men.
List at least three clinical manifestations of alienation that show up in initial presentations for therapy or analysis.
Describe two strategies for dealing with relational avoidance in psychotherapy.
Explain how activities online can become addictive.
