Jungian psychotherapy/analysis is also known as analytical psychology and is a form of psychotherapy developed by the Swiss psychiatrist and psychotherapist Carl Gustav Jung.

The aim of psychotherapy is to help the client to a better understanding of themselves, and the removal of blockages is usually linked to the processing of complexes in our personal unconscious. The therapy results in a better flow of life energy in the body and a greater connection with oneself. The process is linked to Jung's idea of individualisation and becoming "who we really are". Individualisation happens throughout life and does not end when the therapeutic work stops. An important part of the psychoanalytic therapeutic process is the relationship that is established between the therapist and the client, which allows the client to resolve the frictions and blockages in his or her own psyche through conversation. Trust is the basis and the beginning of any therapeutic work.

I divide Jungian psychotherapy into two parts: psychotherapy and analysis. The work on the self usually starts because of a recurrent symptom (insomnia, depression, fears, relationship problems, feelings of emptiness). The psychotherapeutic part is usually linked to the elimination of the symptom, while the psychoanalytic part sees the symptom as an attempt of the psyche to transform itself in a profound way, and it is this insight that usually marks the beginning of a longer lasting (psycho)analysis. The Jungian approach is one of the proven approaches to psychotherapy that has a deep, qualitative and profound impact on the long-term changes in the personality of the client, as well as a constructive impact on his/her life. It is usually a multi-year process. The unconscious contents of the psyche are approached through techniques such as dreams, symbols, archetypes, active imagery, the use of mythology, fairy tales, art. Through the analysis of these contents we approach the developmental blockages, complexes and repressed contents of the unconscious. The aim is to unite the conscious and unconscious parts of the psyche and thus to establish a more qualitative balance in the psyche. By achieving wholeness, we embark on the path of individuation, which according to Jung is a lifelong process that continues after the end of therapy and is a different experience for each individual.

I offer psychotherapeutic/psychoanalytic counselling in Slovene, Italian and English. A combination of face-to-face and online work is possible. In addition to the initial meeting, I recommend 4 weekly initial meetings to see if the way of working suits you. After that, the therapy/psychoanalysis begins, where it is important to attend regular meetings, which are fixed in advance and only changed in exceptional cases.
