JUNGIAN STUDIES OFFERED BY THE CHICAGO JUNG INSTITUTE


For people interested in formal study of Jungian Psychology, the Jung Institute of Chicago offers an excellent program.  The program, meetings on weekends over a two-year period, has drawn participants from all parts of the U.S.  Feedback from graduates of the program has been universally positive.  The experience of downtown Chicago coupled with serious study of Jung is a refreshing change of pace for many.  Serious study of Jung is a fine way to tap into creative potentials.  The Chicago Program is truly re-creational in nature.

The Jungian Psychotherapy Program (JPP) and the Jungian Studies Program (JSP) are unique and dynamic two-year programs in Analytical Psychology offered by the C.G. Jung Institute of Chicago. The Jungian Psychotherapy Program (JPP) offers licensed mental health and social service professionals an opportunity to enrich and deepen their work through didactic and experiential learning in Analytical Psychotherapy. The Jungian Studies Program (JSP) shares core curriculum with the JPP and offers professionals in other fields an opportunity to gain a comprehensive knowledge of analytical psychology to enrich and deepen their creative work.

These programs meet concurrently one weekend a month (October - June). A new two-year cycle begins October 2014 and the deadline for applications to the 2014 - 2016 program has been extended to July 1, 2014.

The JPP accepts psychologists, social workers, counselors, marriage and family therapists, physicians, and nurses. The JSP accepts allied professionals such as spiritual directors, chaplains, alternative health care providers, educators and artists. JSP students and JPP students participate in all aspects of the program together except where confidential clinical material is discussed. At those times, participants are divided into separate small process groups. Continuing education credits are available for JPP students.
