Somatic Practice in Jungian Psychotherapy
Presented by Celeste Ryan, Ph.D.
This presentation will introduce the integration of somatic practices into Jungian psychotherapy, focusing on the archetypal material of the collective unconscious and working with complexes. We will cover Jung’s view that the archetypes reside within the body in the “autonomous functional systems.” Drawing from clinical material, will utilize tools from Somatic Experiencing (resonance, titration, and pendulation) and the parallels that arise in the interactive field in the context of analytic work. We will also explore the Somatic Experiencing use of SIBAM (sensation, image, behavior, affect and meaning) and its correlation with Jungian typology (a brief overview). Through case material we will look at how the unconscious emerges through bodily symptoms.
Learning objectives:
- Describe Jung’s view of how bodily symptoms and image relate to each other.
- Apply the Somatic Experiencing tool of SIBAM (sensation, image, behavior, affect and meaning) to Jungian typology in clinical work.
- Describe the interactive field as it relates to Somatic Experiencing tools of resonance, titration and pendulation.
- Discuss Jung’s concept of the subtle body as the somatic unconscious.
