Programs that specialize in providing therapeutic interventions that follow the principles of analytical psychotherapy developed by Carl Jung in which an attempt is made to create, by means of a symbolic approach, a dialectical relationship between the conscious and the unconscious. Principal concepts include the role of primal archetypes, which are universal and arise from the collective unconscious, as guiding forces in human behavior; and the bipolar nature of the human mind which looks at individuals in terms of introversion/extroversion dimensions, the thinking, feeling, sensing and intuiting focus of mental activity, and the masculine/feminine dimensions of the psyche. The role of the therapist is to bring to consciousness the repressed side of the psyche and to strengthen those facets as a means of enriching the individual's life. The therapist uses dream analysis as a primary mechanism for understanding the individual's current problems and future aspirations.
