Description
Description:
Psyche has been located wholly intrapersonally (within the individual} or interpersonally (between persons, families, groups}, but never is it conceived also extra-personally as a component of the world, as a world soul or anima mundi in the classical sense.
Educational Objectives:
- To raise fundamental questions concerning the place of psychotherapy in today’s world
- To indicate other foci for psychological attention beyond the individual, the group, and the family (e.g., beyond the consulting room)
- To challenge the notions that psychotherapy raises consciousness, develops personality, enhances sensitivity, and improves relationships
- To present a contemporary Jungian attitude and rhetoric to the practice of psychotherapy
