About This Course

Discovering The Mind And How It Develops

Analytical psychology is a psychological approach developed by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung. Jungian psychology, as it is also known, emphasizes the exploration of the deeper layers of the psyche and the integration of unconscious elements into conscious awareness. Analytical psychology is known for its focus on symbols, archetypes, and the individuation process—the journey towards realizing one's true and unique self.

Key concepts and features of analytical psychology include:

  1. Collective Unconscious:

    • Jung proposed the existence of a collective unconscious, a layer of the unconscious mind shared by all human beings. It contains universal symbols, themes, and archetypes that shape human experiences and behaviors.

  2. Archetypes:

    • Archetypes are universal, recurring symbols or motifs that emerge from the collective unconscious. Examples include the hero, the mother, the shadow, and the anima/animus. Archetypes influence thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, contributing to the understanding of myths, stories, and dreams.

  3. Persona and Shadow:

    • The persona represents the social mask or role that an individual presents to the outside world. The shadow, on the other hand, consists of repressed or hidden aspects of the self, both positive and negative. Jungian therapy often involves exploring and integrating the shadow for personal growth.

    • Other key features are discussed within this course too.

This course educates all learners from the absolute beginner to the more advanced learner, to the benefits and criticisms of Analytical Psychology.  Within this course, Dr. Conor Hogan simplifies the presumed difficulties of Analytical Psychology into practical examples so that the learner feels comforted and confident in their learning of the topic.
