What Is Jungian Therapy?

What to expect from Jungian Therapy?: A psychoanalytic approach developed by Carl Jung, Jungian therapy (also known as Jungian Psychotherapy and Jungian analysis) is rooted in achieving a balance between the conscious and the unconscious, in order to heal the whole.

Considered holistic in nature, meaning that it cultivates overall wellness, Jungian psychotherapy is beneficial for anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of themselves, as well as for those suffering from specific emotional problems.

Jungian therapy works with the concept of the ‘collective unconscious’, believing that all humans are subject to certain psychic experiences and that it is only through understanding and accepting this that we can become whole.

What is Jungian play therapy?: Jungian play therapy (also called Jungian analytical play therapy) is centered towards children and believes that the therapeutic power of healing and transformation comes directly from within the child, and not from any outside technique/person.

Based on observation and experience, a Jungian play therapist will help promote pseudoscientific healing from within the child by using the symbolic language of play.

Therapy Issues That Jungian therapy Helps With

What does Jungian therapy focus on: Your therapist will work with your imagination to promote a deep exploration of your unconscious mind, aiming to discover and heal the sources of your issues rather than relieve the symptoms. The aim of Jungian therapy is to achieve psychological healing and well-being by aligning conscious and unconscious aspects of your personality.

We want you to feel able to discuss any questions or worries with your therapist. This is important in order for you to progress in your therapy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why Should I Seek Jungian Therapy?

Many people, new to this type of help, believe that they need to be suffering from “mental illness” or serious “psychological problems”, or be in crisis in order for therapy and counselling to be appropriate for them. This is a common misconception; anyone can benefit from therapy when it comes to helping you deal with your personal feelings and problems, make positive changes in your life, and understand yourself better.

So what is therapy and counselling? If you’re new to this world then the first steps can sometimes be the most difficult. Therapy can be a very effective treatment for a whole range of personal problems covering areas from physical and emotional problems, different types of behavioural disorders, through to human sexuality issues and a host of wellbeing and complementary therapy techniques.

Any problem you have that is causing you concern, anxiety or distress is a valid and appropriate reason to reach out and find a therapist and talk to them about it. Far from something to be ashamed of, acknowledging your vulnerability and asking for help is a sign of maturity and strength.

If you feel that you have a desire and are committed to making changes in your life in order to overcome your current problems and achieve more long-term satisfaction, psychological wellbeing and personal fulfilment, then you are ready to seek therapy. We are here to help you work through a wide range of therapy issues that might be troubling you.

Will Information About Me Be Safe & Secure?

It is quite normal to be hesitant when it comes to sharing private and intimate information about yourself with a stranger. You may fear that you will receive judgment from your therapist, or that your therapist will share your details with others.

HQ Therapy Rooms takes your privacy and confidentiality very seriously. Our therapists are required to keep everything said in therapy sessions between you, just like your doctor is required to keep your records private.

For therapy to be effective, there must be unconditional trust built between you and your therapist, and this relies on a shared understanding of confidentiality. It applies to the outside world as well: it is standard practice for therapists not to acknowledge their clients if they run into them outside of the therapy rooms in order to help protect their client’s confidentiality. Read our full privacy policy for more information.
