Speaking of Jung, Ep. 99: Jungian analyst, geneticist & professor of psychiatry Michael Escamilla MD

Michael Escamilla is a Zürich-trained Jungian analyst, professor of psychiatry, genetics researcher, and McMillan Scholar at the McMillan Institute for Jungian Studies at the Jung Center Houston. He is the author of the book, ‘Bleuler, Jung, & the Creation of the Schizophrenias’ (https://amzn.to/39mbIPu). We discussed Jung’s early career as a psychiatrist, who his real mentor was, and how his later work was influenced by his experiences with psychotics. In this rather lengthy episode we also covered how Dr. Escamilla balances practicing as both a psychiatrist and a Jungian analyst, his research on the genetics of schizophrenia, how the field of neuroscience is finally catching up to Jungian psychology, plus a whole lot more (including why Jung is on the cover of Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band!). ► Visit our website for links to everything discussed in this episode and to stream or download the audio https://ift.tt/32sO8QS ✦ ✦ ✦ SPEAKING OF JUNG: Website – https://speakingofjung.com​​​ Guest List – https://speakingofjung.com/find​​​ Apple Podcasts – http://is.gd/dhGZ21​​​​​ Spotify – https://is.gd/qdrHVN​​​​​ CONNECT: Subscribe to this YouTube channel Twitter – https://twitter.com/jungianLaura Instagram – https://ift.tt/2YHWZN4 Facebook – https://ift.tt/3Bvtht8 ✦ ✦ ✦
