Case Response I
human relationship.She taught me there are long periods of darkness when we don't know where we're going nor why we continue to walk together.She taught me exhaustively about the limits of my power.Paradoxically, Patricia found herself when she realized there would be an ending and she would not be engulfed by me.She finally found the warmth of the kitchen and liberated the inner aspects of herself-the patients "condemned" to stay "downstairs".Sh…
Compassionate Witnessing
This article, taken from a presentation offered in the fall of 2019 at the Inter-Regional Invitational Conference entitled “Despair and Hope: Holding the Center in Turbulent Times” follows its original production in two Acts. Act I addresses how the Rosarium, an alchemical series, presents a template for the transformation of solar (masculine) and lunar (feminine) soul energies. A comparison to the Christian rosary is made, highlighting the impor…
The technologically‐mediated self
This paper contains reflections on the use of the imagination in technologically‐mediated therapy and analysis. As part of the individuation process the psyche is seen as needing to adapt to new technological ways of communicating. The notion of a technologically‐mediated self is posited describing a self which can only be apprehended through, and by, the use of telecommunications. This self is seen as identical to the in‐person self, a subset, o…
What is a Jungian analyst dreaming when myth comes to mind? Thirdness as an aspect of the anima media natura
Listening analytically is not listening just to what is said but listening to what is just below the surface waiting to be said. This paper looks at Jung's insight into a 'third thing' being created intra-psychically and within the analytic encounter. Ogden's concept of an 'analytic third' is used to describe the clinical aspects of this thirdness. This paper explores: how the state of thirdness is created and accessed through use of reverie and …
Associative dreaming
The idea of countertransference has expanded beyond its original meaning of a neurotic reaction to include all reactions of the therapist: affective, bodily, and imaginal. Additionally, Jung's fundamental insight in 'The psychology of the transference' was that a 'third thing' is created in the analysis, but he failed to demonstrate how this third is experienced and utilized in analysis. This 'analytic third', as Ogden names it, is co-created by …
The art of the tincture
Using the alchemical metaphor, effective supervision can be seen as an excellent example of the tincture: a little goes a long way. This paper offers a model of the dynamics in analytical supervision: a mirroring of the professional-self of the supervisee, the opportunity to learn through empirical factual knowledge, and, most importantly, experiential, interactive and dynamic learning. The container of supervision will be amplified using an imag…
