All prepared topics are covered using real life examples from the life and psyche of a client. The goal of the counseling is to map out the areas in clients life that need more attention to create more balance and harmony. Counseling aims mainly to create better contact and bring about change on the deeper levels of the psyche (unconscious and the archetypes).

 

Preliminary plan

 

Before the first meeting I recommend that you take a Jungian personality type test (32 questions) on the website: https://openjung.org/. Mark down your type description and we will discuss it at the first meeting. 

 

First meeting

Establishing contact, opening up the client’s problem/ question. Deep analysis of clients’ personality type. Plan for the next meeting (how to notice important symbols and topics in your life). Next meeting time arrangement.  

 

Second meeting

Retrospective. Currently important topics/ events in clients life. Recurrent symbols/ topics. Jungian structure of the psyche- Persona, Ego, Self, Shadow. On which level the client mostly operates? Finding natural doorways to the unconscious. Which techniques could help to access the unconscious (weakening the Ego, intensifying awareness, vulnerability in relationships, existential questions, allowing uncertainty etc). Exercises. Conclusion. Next meeting time arrangement.

 

Third meeting

Retrospective. Currently important topics/ events in clients life.

Discussing the contents of clients unconsciousness using recurrent symbols and topics. Transcendental function - short theory and practical exercises. Learning how to hold the tension of the opposites, not to hurry to find solutions and make interpretations. Conclusion. Next meeting time arrangement.

 

Fourth meeting

Retrospective. Currently important topics/ events in clients life. Anima and animus - masculine and feminine archetypes in clients psyche. Relationships with the opposite sex. Integration of anima and animus. Shadow and the archetypes. Shadow work. Conclusion. Plan for the future.
