SECTION THREE:
The Complex of Identity: Ego, Ego Development and the Structure of the Psyche
Mondays, October 24, 31; November 7, 14, 2022
Shoshana Fershtman, JD, PhD
In this course, we explore C. G. Jung’s conceptualization of the ego, the Latin word for “I.” Jung wrote in Aion that the ego forms “the centre of the field of consciousness.” In this course, we explore Jung’s view of the ego, ego complex and identity. We explore ego development and its challenges, and the ego’s relationship to other aspects of the psyche, including the shadow, the persona and the “Self”.

Robin Eve Greenberg, MFT
The Archetypal Psyche
Mondays, January 23, 30; February 6, 13, 2023
Robin Eve Greenberg, MFT
This section of classes will focus on the archetypal ground of the psyche as the prima materia for the individuating personality in the clinical setting. We will consider how to work with archetypal material in the context of the therapeutic relationship, and explore how mytholgems, dreams, behaviors, images, synchronicities, complexes, ideas, and the body carry meaningful messages from the archetypal depths in service of the Self and in the process of “individuation”. Our focus will include dreams, active imagination, and the body in analysis.
SECTION SIX:
Types of Consciousness
Mondays, February 27, March 6, 13, 20, 2023
John Beebe, MD
Dorothy Stump, MFT
Jung’s psychological types are not types of people but types of consciousness. In this course, we will learn to differentiate the eight types of consciousness Jung identified, as well as examine what Jung meant by the terms “rational” and “irrational” as well as extraverted and introverted as qualities of consciousness. We will learn to recognize the types of consciousness and see how types relate to archetypal roles each of us take up.

SECTION SEVEN:
Approaching the Unconscious:
An Analytic Attitude
Mondays, March 27; April 3, 10, 2023
Tina Stromsted, PhD, MFT, LPCC, BC-DMT, RSME/T
Our dreams and our bodies may be our closest links to the unconscious. The soul’s longing for healing, growth, and individuation often surfaces through images, breath, gesture, the rhythm of our step, and the music and metaphors of our speech. To gain further access to this rich and meaningful material, these three class sessions will engage dreamwork, Jung’s “active imagination,” creative arts, and the body in the clinical relationship. These methods can be applied to a wide range of populations and clinical settings.

SECTION EIGHT:
Anima and Animus, Recovering Depths
Mondays, April 17, 24; May 1, 8, 2023
Lauren Cunningham, LCSW

We will examine the use of the terms anima and animus before Jung, Jung’s conceptions of anima and animus development, post-Jungian expansions and refinements of the concepts.

Mondays, May 15, 22; June 5, 12, 2023
Carolyn Bray, PhD
These classes will probe the relationship between the ego and the Self in the individuation process, covering the development of the ego out of the Self as well as the Self as an entity of wholeness and organization.
