How would you decide if Jungian therapy or analysis were right for you? Some potential benefits could be:

• deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships
  
• greater ability to access your own unconscious in positive ways
• exploring your dreams
• noticing when your defenses trap you
• having more tolerance for life's many uncertainties
• discovering where your creative passions might take you

Therapy and analysis are not for everyone. Some problems can be handled through brief consultation and a focus on problem-solving. There are many other types of therapy available nowadays. If you are looking for something else, university clinics are often a good resource to call.

Jungian analysts are members of the International Association of Analytical Psychology. They also usually belong to local institutes, for example the San Francisco Jung Institute.
