Past summer participants hailed from such diverse locations as Brazil, Switzerland, Belgium, Puerto Rico, Australia, Ireland, Venezuela, and the pacific northwest. Both of the intensive programs have been carefully designed to be informative and stimulating for professionals in the field and the general public. We encourage participants from a wide range of backgrounds to attend either or both sessions of our summer program.

Narcissism in Legends and Fairy Tales: A live, online, audio class with international student discussion

Five consecutive Tuesdays, 7.00–8:30 pm, Eastern Time, USA.
Beginning April 17

Instructor Maxson J McDowell, PhD

Fresh, surprising fairy tales from a wide range of cultures describe narcissistic injuries and show how they may be healed. We will explore a different tale each week, finding that narcissistic injuries have always been addressed with psychological insight.

Like dreams, legends and fairy tales use symbolic images, images which best represent the psyche's vitality and nuance without trivializing its mystery. In lively, interactive discussion you will practice interpreting such images.

Hillmaniana: Explorations

5 consecutive Wednesdays, 6:30 – 8.10 pm
Beginning April 18
Note: This course will be held at 420 East 51st Street, Suite C.

Instructor Sylvester Wojtkowski, PhD

In this course, we will explore Hillman's contributions to imaginative engagement with anima mundi in its multiple manifestations. We encounter Hillman the iconoclast, who in martial style crashes sacred cows of therapeutic industry, who deconstructs dominant narratives of family values, of personality, and social and political ideas. We will contemplate various themes that Hillman so beautifully, profoundly and poetically articulated: soul-making, therapy of ideas, thought of the heart, Senex and Puer, alchemical motives, war, psychological polytheism, dreams, myths and metaphors, acorn theory, etc.

Beyond Words: Self-Discovery through Journaling in Images

5 consecutive Wednesdays, 6:30 – 8:10 pm
Beginning April 19

Instructor Barbara Barry

Jung was particularly attuned to the place images play in the life of the psyche, telling us that ''the psyche consists essentially of images . . . full of meaning and purpose.'' This class is instructive and experiential. Participants will learn techniques for eliciting images and how to give them visual expression using a simple painting approach in journal form. They will also learn ways to break through creative blocks and work in a spontaneous manner. No art experience or skill is necessary, only the desire to explore how a journal beyond words can enrich one's life.

Jungian Dream Work

5 consecutive Thursdays, 7:00 – 8:40 pm
Beginning April 19
Note: this course will be held at 7 West 96th St, #1E, New York, NY 10025.

Instructor Harry W. Fogarty, PhD

We shall review Jung's approach to dream work as well as expansions on that work by contemporary Jungians. In general, we shall endeavor to place the dream within an actual context so that our focus will be on how dreams form part of a larger dialogue between our ordinary sense of ourselves and the aspects of ourselves of which we are unaware and which are emerging.

Upcoming Lectures



Emotional Chaos to Clarity

Thursday, June 14th, 7.00–8:30 pm.

A talk by Phillip Moffitt

During the past 25 years as a mentor to hundreds of meditation students and consultant to executive clients at his Life Balance Institute, Moffitt has observed that many people have one or more areas of their lives in which they experience emotional chaos. When we react to thoughts, feelings, and experiences in an unskillful way, we get caught in the chaos of emotional reactivity. In Emotional Chaos to Clarity, Moffitt lays out a process for finding freedom from difficult emotions by using mindfulness and intention to develop the clarity of a responsive mind.
