This seminar will introduce Jung's intersubjective perspective on transference and countertransference, including its roots as an archetypal transformative process and its validation through recent discoveries in neuroscience. We will begin with an overview of Jung's unique, mystical understanding of relational resonance, followed by a brief study of the alchemical text, The Rosarium Philosophorum. An interactive sandplay case presentation will be used to illustrate the integrative power of working with transference/countertransference from both personal and archetypal perspectives.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe Jung’s view of transference and countertransference.
- Give an example of how the therapist and client may communicate nonverbally in the course of psychotherapy.
- Give an example of how the clinician can facilitate healing through conscious, nonverbal use of transference/countertransference.
