“Active Imagination & the Use of Images in Jungian Analysis”
With Murray Stein and Paul Brutsche

Presenters:
Murray Stein, Ph.D. is Co-President of the International School of Analytical Psychology (ISAP) in Zurich, Switzerland.
Paul Brutsche, Ph.D. is a senior training and supervising analyst at ISAP.

Dr. Murray Stein & Dr. Paul Brutsche, renowned Jungian analysts from Zurich, take an in-depth look at the the Jungian technique known as Active Imagination.

In the classic form of Jungian psychoanalysis, active imagination played a key role as a method for engaging the unconscious and for promoting the more advanced stages of the individuation process. An important tool in the practice of active imagination was and remains “making pictures.’ Using pencil, pen, paint, clay and other means of expression, the practitioner gives concrete reality and embodiment to the images generated in active imagination. This seminar examines how the method came into being, how it is used, and how it has evolved during the past several decades into its contemporary forms. Murray Stein introduces the method of active imagination and Paul Brutsche shows how the making of pictures is interpreted within the context of long-term Jungian psychotherapy.
