Tine’s seminar

Marie Luis von Franz said that inferior function is the windows through which not only angels but also the daemons come to us.
In this workshop, we will explore why it is good to know our typology, inferior function and our shadow and how can it manifest in the countertransference. We will look at the theory of typology, typology, and theory of transference and how these two fields interfere.

We will look at the true examples of how acting out can occur or it’s opposite how it can manifest in not acting when needed. We will discuss in a group setting our typology, how it connects to our shadow, share our experience if wished and do practical exercises connected to the topic that will make us familiar with the material.

Drago’s seminar – Money Shadow in Analysis (4h)

The goal of the seminar is to help participants think and deal with money issues in analysis. We will start with classical definition of shadow in Jungian Psychology. This will lead us to complexes that constitute the shadow with special accent on money complex. As every complex, money complex has its collective aspect. We will try to understand collective aspects of money complex through history and economy of money and comparative material from fairy tales, mythology, religion.

The second part of the seminar will start with specific themes from practice that will be discussed in the group. The participants are asked to contribute with prepared examples/questions from their own practice/life connected with money.

Besides working in private practice, Natalia also teaches analytical psychology in Zigmund Freud University Ljubljana, Slovenia.

Natalia’s seminar

Working on shadow issues is one of the main parts of any analysis. We know the classic approaches to such work. Yet we all also know that sometimes things don’t go by the book or that the classic recipes don’t help. And in such cases we are not very effective in working with shadow complex. In this seminar I propose to look at how and why we therapists may be failing in helping our clients to recognize and integrate the shadow and how our own shadow may be a reason for such failures. I intend to use examples from my own practice and encourage participants to bring cases where they feel they may need some fresh insight into working with shadow.

Olga’s seminar

In this seminar we will take a close look at such habitual obligations of analytical profession as solitude, isolation, being silent. Each of these has a shadow side — being seduced by relationships, publicity, expressing oneself as well as listening to other, nventing the meanings of other. How to endure the anxiety and tension, which are necessary prerequisits of the alchemycal reaction of analysis? We will be doing a couple of exercises, discussing few vignettes from practice, will phantasise about acting out and freedom of analyst.
