  • DJA 720: Jungian Psychology: Individuation

    3.00 Credits
    Pacifica Graduate Institute

    The central process in Jungian psychology is the individuation process, which can be defined as the psyche's journey toward wholeness, an embodiment of the archetype of the Self. In Jungian psychology, this is done in large part by balancing or uniting the opposites within the psyche, including the feminine and masculine principles, known as the anima and animus. This course explores the centrality of the individuation process to Jungian psychology, reviewing terms such as the ego-Self axis, the persona and the shadow, the transcendent function, and the personal and collective unconscious.

  • DJA 730: Archetypal Psychology

    3.00 Credits
    Pacifica Graduate Institute

    Archetypal psychology is one of the central strands of post-Jungian theory. As envisioned by its main proponent James Hillman, it emphasizes the development of a mythic sensibility in confronting the complexity and multiplicity of psychological life. Students learn the history and central ideas of this psychology, and become conversant with its four basic moves: personifying, or imagining things; pathologizing, or falling apart; psychologizing, or seeing through; and dehumanizing, or soul-making.

  • DJA 740: Psychoanalytic Tradition: Ongoing Conver

    3.00 Credits
    Pacifica Graduate Institute

    The first conversation between Sigmund Freud and C. G. Jung lasted over 13 hours, and explored many places of convergence and divergence. In many ways, this conversation continues today, with places of convergence and divergence in post-Freudian and post-Jungian theory and practice. Students will study the psychodynamics of early development and psychopathology and examine the influence of the object-relations, self-psychology, and other modern psychoanalytic theories on contemporary Jungian theory and practice.

  • DJA 750: Depth Psychology: Comments, Critiques

    2.00 Credits
    Pacifica Graduate Institute

    From its inception as a field of study and set of clinical practices, depth psychology has engendered its fair share of commentary, controversy, and critique. The infamous break in the relationship between Freud and Jung is just one example of strife and division inside the ranks of depth psychology; judgements have been leveled from outside the field as well. This course examines some of the shadow of depth psychology, which includes accusations of Eurocentricism, racism, sexism, cultural insensitivity, elitism, anti-Semitism, political apathy, and an obsession with the inner life at the expense of the outer world. A depth psychology for this century needs to seriously examine these critiques, and transform theories and practices in their light to increase their cultural sensitivity and inclusiveness.

  • DJA 800: Archetypes: Universal Patterns of Psyche

    3.00 Credits
    Pacifica Graduate Institute

    Robert Hopcke states that "perhaps the most fundamental and distinctive concept in analytical psychology" is "that of the archetypes of the collective unconscious." This course focuses on Jung's major writings on the collective unconscious and archetypes, tracing the development of Jung's conceptualization and exploring the evidence he gave in support of it (ranging from myth, religion, literature, art, and culture). Students will research a contempaorary scholar who is working with the archetypes today, such as Carol Pearson, Caroline Myss, Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette, and Michael Conforti.

  • DJA 805: Mythopoetic Imagination: Film, Art, Lit

    2.00 Credits
    Pacifica Graduate Institute

    Symbols are one of the ways the unconscious speaks to us and through us, its visual language for conveying the deep mysteries of life. After exploring the psychological importance of symbols, we turn our focus to the manifestation of symbol-making in literature, film, and art. In addition, students will explore and amplify a symbol that speaks to their psyches through an artistic creation of their own.

  • DJA 810: Complexes:Jung's "Royal Road" to Uncons

    2.00 Credits
    Pacifica Graduate Institute

    In his seminal essay "A Review of the Complex Theory," Jung calls complexes the via regia, or royal road, to the personal and collective unconscious. The complexes were so important to Jung that for a while he called his psychology "complex psychology." The course explores complexes on multiple levels - personal, familial, group, and cultural - looking at their phenomenology, their antonomy, and their biology. How to recognize and work with and through one's complexes is discussed.

  • DJA 815: Depth Psych and the Mythic Tradition

    3.00 Credits
    Pacifica Graduate Institute

    James Hillman wrote, "Psychology shows myths in modern dress and myths show our depth psychology in ancient dress." Understanding the connection between mythology and psychology, Jung argued, that it is important to our psychological health to know the myth we are living. The course will focus on archetypal motifs in fairy tales and myths as they appear in our personal and collective psychological lives. Students will study Jungian and post-Jungian mythological theory and interpretation; in addition they will choose one author who has successfully brought the mythological psyche before the public eye, such as Joseph Campbell, Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Jean Shinoda Bolen, Marion Woodman, Robert Bly, etc., critically reviewing their contribution.
