Jungian Analysis
in Toronto
Are you feeling lost, disconnected, or struggling to find meaning in life?
It’s common to feel adrift, especially when traditional sources of happiness don’t resonate. This can leave you feeling stuck, misunderstood, and overwhelmed by existential questions.
At Zen Psychotherapy, we use archetypal analysis to help you navigate these complex inner landscapes. By exploring universal patterns found in myths, folklore, and modern stories like films and comics, we guide you to reconnect with your inner self and find deeper meaning in your life.
What is Jungian Analysis?
Jungian analysis is a therapeutic approach to exploring human culture's timeless patterns and stories. Drawing from the work of Carl Jung and expanded by thinkers like Joseph Campbell, this method examines symbols, myths, and dreams to help you understand your unconscious mind. Unlike conventional therapy, which often focuses on behaviour and thoughts, archetypal analysis invites you to explore your inner world through the lens of ancient narratives and themes.
Who Can Benefit from Jungian Analysis?
This approach is ideal if you:
Feel stuck in a midlife or existential crisis.
Have recurring dreams or profound spiritual experiences you can’t explain.
Struggle to find purpose and meaning in life.
Feel disconnected from traditional values and seek a more spiritually enriching path.
Are interested in mythology, folklore, or the symbolic meanings within stories.
