Jungian Dream Interpretation Online
5 consecutive Tuesdays, 7:00–8:30 pm, Eastern Time, USA
Instructor Maxson J. McDowell, PhD, LMSW, LP
7.5 CE contact hours for licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists. We don’t know where dreams come from but, from experience, we know their purpose. They show us the next possible step in our developing consciousness. They warn us if we are going astray, encourage us if we need it and offer penetrating insights into our confusion. To interpret dreams we have to be disciplined and logical but also emotional, feeling, imaginative and sensate. Using Jung’s concepts as our guide, we will combine our insights to explore each dream and feel success when the class as a whole recognizes an answer and experiences a deepening of consciousness. |

Relationships with Others: What Can We Learn About Them From C.G. Jung?
5 consecutive Mondays, 7:00–8:40 pm
Instructor David Rottman, MA
Fulfilling relationships are “Extroverted Individuation” according to C.G. Jung. In this course we will explore what Jung meant by that statement, as well as his many other helpful ideas (and the ideas of his pupil, Marie-Louise Von Franz) about the nature of both conscious and unconscious connections between people. |

Trauma and the Healing Power of the Image
5 consecutive Mondays, 6:00–7:40 pm
Instructor Gary Brown, LCSW, LP
Religion and, later, psychoanalytic work addressed the reality of trauma in human life. Some of the early foci of the newly discovered and developed psychotherapy were “shell shock” and hysteria. At the heart of this was psyche, the mysterious function which develops images from the pains and pleasures of life and allows meaning to happen. We will explore what Jung discovered: that images contain and hold affect, the experience of feeling or emotion. |

The Art of C.G. Jung
5 consecutive Wednesdays, 6:30–8:10 pm
Instructor Maria Taveras, LCSW
Inspiration for this course derives from the book The Art of C.G. Jung, which documents the full extent of Jung’s creative imagination as a visual artist. It comprises examples of Jung’s visual art both before and after The Red Book and includes essays that situate Jung’s artistry in the context of modern art. The Art of C.G. Jung will be required reading in this course, and participants will also apply their own creative imagination by doing hands-on, in-class art exercises under the guidance of the instructor. |

Revisioning Jungian Theory: A Reading Seminar
5 consecutive Wednesdays, 7:00–8:40 pm
Instructor Harry W. Fogarty, PhD
We will read together Warren Colman’s Act and Image-The Emergence of Symbolic Imagination, along with a critical commentary on Colman’s approach, in an effort to refresh and intensify our understanding of archetypal theory and Jungian process. We shall engage how symbols come to be and function for us as individuals in community. |

Sacrifice and Individuation
5 consecutive Thursdays, 6:30–8:10 pm
Instructor David Walczyk, EdD, LP
In this class, we seek to answer the question, what is the relationship between sacrifice and living the process of individuation? Participants are encouraged to consider their relationship to sacrifice and its purpose in their individuation and in the individuation of those they care about. With a firm grounding in the history and fundamentals of sacrifice and individuation, we will consider how that relationship manifests itself in our time: first, collectively in the wellness industry and then personally in clinical practice. |

I Am (Not) An ObjectTuesday, February 5, 2019: 12:30 – 1:30 pm A First Tuesday Lunch Forum presented by David Walczyk, EdD, LP.
Why do we tend to treat ourselves and others as objects rather than as individuals? The obvious answer is to project the blame onto something other than ourselves and to some extent that projection may be accurate. Yet, when we choose to project blame and not accept responsibility, we are actively sacrificing the production of our mental ecology to outer life at the expense of inner life. When it comes to the inner life, Shallow is the New Deep. The sacred responsibility for treating ourselves and others as individuals and not as objects falls upon each of us. It is a fundamental, yet often overlooked, aspect of living the process of individuation. |

Images of Coniunctio in Christiana Morgan's VisionsTuesday, March 5, 2019: 12:30 – 1:30 pm A First Tuesday Lunch Forum presented by Ilona Melker, LCSW.
Jung's Vision Seminars are based on the manuscripts of his and Christiana Morgan. Jung did not address in the seminars that the direction of the visions was moving toward coniunctio, the uniting of the masculine with the feminine as opposites. Our visual explorations will be some unexplored images of coniunctio in the manuscripts that Jung did not touch upon. |

Falling Apart and Coming Together: Addressing the Pain of Trauma Using Art Based ApproachesSaturday, February 23, 2019: A day-long workshop led by Paula Howie, ATR-BC, LPC, LCPAT Contact hours: 6 CE contact hours for Licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists for this program. This session will focus on the history of trauma with an emphasis on the Intensive Trauma Therapy (ITT) approach created by Drs. Linda Gantt and Louis Tinnin from their work in the 1980s and 1990s. The ITT intervention is an art-focused approach. It is designed to treat the common clusters of trauma-based problems, including eliminating intrusive and arousal symptoms, and reducing avoidance and numbing symptoms without the person reliving the trauma. The presentation will cover the theoretical basis of the approach and will include lecture, personal experiential, and representative case materials. |

The Red Book: An Encounter with Jung's Words and ImagesSaturday, March 30, 2019: A day-long workshop led by Sanford L. Drob, PhD Contact hours: 6 CE contact hours for Licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists for this program. This workshop will provide an introduction to Jung's Red Book (Liber Novus) and a meditation upon a selection of Jung's painted images. Our primary goals will be to understand the relevance of The Red Book to personal growth, the psychotherapeutic process, and the pursuit of life-meaning. We will examine the Red Book in the context of Jung's earlier and later works, his personal crisis in relationship to Freud, and the work's place in the history of ideas. Amongst the topics to be considered: meaning and the absurd, chaos and order, the death of the inner hero, masculine and feminine, shadow and persona, good and evil, reason and unreason, sanity and madness, "accepting all," God and self, and the guidance of one's soul. |

Natural Cycles, Natural Symbols: Individuation as EcologySaturday, April 13, 2019: A day-long workshop led by Melanie Starr Costello, PhD Contact hours: 6 CE contact hours for Licensed NYS Social Workers, Psychoanalysts and Creative Arts Therapists for this program. By aligning psycho-spiritual maturation with the natural process, our program envisages individuation as a path that embraces the inextricable relationship between life and death principles and assents to Creation as mystery. We will confront dominant cultural constructs that alienate us from the body and obstruct psyche's connection with the non-human world. In hope of redress, we construct an alternative model of consciousness, envisaging a nature-based-symbolic attitude that reconnects us with our roots in nature, conjoining mind, soul, and cosmos. We will discuss the varied archetypal energies that inform our identities and chosen place in the world. We consider: what is the purpose of longevity? What is wisdom? We conclude by reconstructing our portrait of the individuated person, elucidating the nature-based dimensions of social, family and spiritual life. |
