JaH: Jung’s Unique Psychology 10/15/22

A Saturday Lecture with J. Gary Sparks, B.Sc., M.Div., M.A.

The presentation will explore an overview of how Jung’s psychology developed over the course of his lifetime, focusing on his understanding of psychological transformation, beginning with his personal crisis (1913 –1928) through his last mature writing (1951 – 1954). In our discussion, we will address some of the ways in which Jungian psychology can facilitate healing for the individual on a personal as well as a collective level.
