Jungian Analysis is a form of depth psychotherapy developed by the Swiss psychiatrist, C.G. Jung. Through depth psychology, we journey through self-exploration to find our individual path to healing. Most people seek analysis or psychotherapy because they are suffering in some way, seeking relief from painful symptoms that obscure peace, well-being and joy.
Some sense that they have lost touch or betrayed themselves in some way and are seeking a return to their own true path. Others feel disenchanted with traditional clinical psychotherapies and medications and seek an alternative approach to symptoms and suffering. Still others may simply want to know themselves in a deeper way, to engage with the inner world of the psyche by working with the dreams and symbols of the unconscious.

Jungian Analysis is a psychoanalytic process developed by Carl Gustav Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist, one of the pioneers of modern depth psychology or psychology of the unconscious. The unconscious is that part of the psyche over which the ego (or the will) has no control.
This is easily seen in habits we cannot break such as addictions, or in autonomous emotional states which "come over us" (also known as complexes), causing us to behave in ways we often regret.We often refer to such symptoms as neuroses. Jung believed that in order to become a whole person, these two aspects of the psyche, ego consciousness and the unconscious, must come together into a harmonious relationship.

Many people in Jungian Analysis have experienced positive results and outcomes related to increased consciousness and self awareness, which leads to better coping strategies, resolution of inner and outer conflict, and the experience of greater efficacy in the world. In response to this question, a study specifically designed to test the question of the effectiveness of Jungian Analysis was conducted in Switzerland.
