On Saturday May 23, the Journal of Analytical Psychology hosts an online experiential workshop with Peter T. Dunlap, PhD, exploring how small-group work can activate what Jung called psychocultural development. Drawing on his experience convening Belonging, Becoming, and Engaging (BBE) groups, Dunlap introduces the concept of moral attention (the integration of love, political justice, and a scientific commitment to truth) and examines why today’s cultural and socio-political crises cannot be separated from the epidemic of loneliness, nor external problems from internal psychological life.
Participants will explore how ideologies, underlying worldviews, multigenerational histories, and unresolved trauma shape both psyche and society, and how small groups can become living laboratories for belonging, shared becoming, and transformation. It is a timely and practically grounded offering from a psychologist who has spent years working at the intersection of clinical, sociopolitical, and evolutionary perspectives.
Dr Dunlap is a psychologist in private and political practice and faculty member at Pacifica Graduate Institute. He is the author of Awakening our Faith in the Future: The Advent of Psychological Liberalism (Routledge, 2008) and has published widely on Jung’s theory and practice of the species’ psychocultural development.
The workshop runs from 4pm to 6pm London time, you can book via this link.
