SUMMARY:Individuation and Narcissism: The Psychology of Self in Jung and Kohut\, Presented by Dr. James Fidelibus
DESCRIPTION:ZOOM ONLY\n7 SESSIONS\nFRIDAYS FROM 9 am to 11 am\nDates: 9/12; 9/26; 10/10; 10/24; 11/7; 11/21; 12/5\n2 CEUs per session\nScroll below to register for tuition and CEU credit \nTo see interview with Dr. Fidelibus about the seminar click here. \nCourse Description \nEarly development is adversely affected by disruptions in the empathic attunement on the part of caregivers. A lack of adequate of parental mirroring creates a tendency toward inflationary or deflationary self-experience. This\, in turn\, can result in defensive patterns and resistance to depth work. Moving toward healthier patterns requires confrontation with the shadow and an encounter with the Self as the transpersonal center of meaning. In approaching this work\, Jungian analyst\, Mario Jacoby\, incorporates insights from Heinz Kohut’s Self-Psychology along with standard Jungian practice. He offers reflections on clinical material that illustrate how patients can be supported through the analytic process by emphasizing empathic attunement in addition to working with complexes and the archetypal dimensions of the psyche. The analyst must learn to serve\, in balance with standard Jungian practices\, as an attuned\, empathetic self-object in helping to stabilize the patient’s ego. This\, in turn\, supports the patient adequately enough to tolerate the anxieties of the deep inner work required for personal transformation. \nText:    Jacoby\, Mario. (1985).

He is the author of Jung vs Borg: Finding the Deeply Human in a Posthuman Age (2024)\, editor of the third volume of James Hillman’s Uniform Edition\, Senex and Puer (2005)\, co-editor of the essay collection\, Varieties of Mythic Experience (2007). He has also written numerous articles and book chapters for Jungian publications.  His research and writing interests concern Jung and film\, the psychology of religion\, and depth psychology and technology. \nDr. Slater will present a morning lecture titled “Jung\, AI and Psychological Integrity” followed by an afternoon workshop titled “Jung’s Myth of Consciousness in the Digital Age.”  The conference qualifies for 5.5 continuing education units. \nThere will be a one-hour lunch break\, and we have access to both a large refrigerator as well as a microwave so please feel free to bring a lunch (with your name on it).  There are also lunch places in the area. \nLecture: Jung\, AI and Psychological Integrity.\nDescription: In my recent book\, Jung vs Borg: Finding the Deeply Human in a Posthuman Age\, I discuss how the integrity of the human psyche is colliding with our adaptation to digital technology. I contend that a collapse of inner ecology has begun to follow that of outer ecology. This collapse concerns radical changes to human thought processes and a detrimental separation from the deeper ground of existence. Alongside the many benefits of information technologies and online life\, a number of psycho-social problems are implicated in this underlying fragmentation. These problems include an omnipresence of disinformation\, blurring lines between the actual and the virtual\, and epidemics of anxiety\, depression and loneliness. Even in the face of such trends\, many futurists are advocating for a merger of human and artificial intelligence.  In this presentation I will turn to C. G. Jung’s understanding of archetypal patterns and psychodynamics to engage these matters. A focus will be on the contrast between the integrative experiences Jung emphasized and the dissociative style of consciousness that pervades today’s digital lifestyle. We will thereby explore the way Jung’s psychology offers a critical counterpoint to the preoccupation with the present and future technologies. \nWorkshop: Jung’s Myth of Consciousness in the Digital Age\nDescription: C.G. Jung understood that psychological wellbeing rests on having a story or “myth” that conveys the meaning and purpose of existence. Along these lines\, both Jung and his followers have contended that “the creation of consciousness” (Edinger) is a fitting myth for our time\, joining the personal and collective significance of the individuation process. At this cultural-historical juncture\, as information expands and wisdom contracts\, this vision of making the unconscious more conscious may have found its ultimate purpose. With the meeting of information technology and biotechnology\, the power to reshape the world is turning into the power to reshape ourselves. But can we wield this power in conscious ways\, or will we reengineer human nature before we understand it? This workshop will consider our habits of mind in the digital age\, the differences between consciousness and intelligence\, the re-enchantment of ways of knowing\, and the redemptive prospect of a more co-creative way forward—one that taps the wisdom of the psyche and accounts for the fullness and depth of our humanity. \nMaggi Colwell\, JACO Board Member and Art Therapist\, interviewed Dr. Slater about the program he will be presenting. To see the interview\, click here. \nTo learn more about Dr. Slater and his thought process\, you may want to look into his recent book\, “Jung vs. Borg:  Finding the Deeply Human in a Posthuman Age.”[1]  In addition\, we are including here links to 4 articles\n1. Jung and the Posthumans\n2. Re-Sink the Titanic\n3. J Analytical Psychology – 2024 – Slattery – Slater Glen Jung vs Borg Finding the Deeply Human in a Posthuman Age \n4. A New Global Crisis \nIn critiquing Dr. Slater’s book\, Donald Kalshed stated: “Many years ago C. G. Jung warned us that without an ‘imagination for evil’ we modern human beings were in danger of becoming instruments of the very evil we abhor. Glen Slater’s brilliant and passionate analysis of online culture and its insidious seductions of hyperreality\, virtual companions\, and cyber presences—all run by artificial intelligence—opens up that imagination in ways that are both terrifying and illuminating. To become conscious of these dehumanizing forces in our midst and how to combat their dissociative effects on the inner life of the soul should be a major focus of all depth psychological training in the 21st century. I cannot emphasize strongly enough the importance of this book.” \n[1] For Star Trek fans\, you may recall the infamous Borg—a species that converted humans into cyborgs and the famous line\, “You will be assimilated.” \nIf you wish to become a member to receive a discounted registration fee\, you may join by clicking here. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n
