John R White, PhD, LPC, Jungian Diplomate Life can be full of surprises, not all of them happy. There may be times when, quite out of the blue, you feel anxious, depressed, or just plain stuck.

Even in the midst of personal, financial and professional success, you might still find you are struggling emotionally, interiorly questioning, wondering whether all the energy and time you have put into your life is really paying off. Often, you may not know what exactly is troubling you and yet feel quite certain that something is not quite right inside. When it feels this way, therapy can help.

As a psychoanalyst in the tradition of Carl Jung, I assume that the various difficulties you experience are not only problems to be solved but also invitations to seek a deeper and richer life. The goal is not only the relief of symptoms but also a movement toward wholeness.

This is a brief discussion Jung's treatment of alchemical, from the standpoint of an esoteric practitioner. While appreciating Jung's contributions, the presentation is also partially critical of Jung's purely psychological view of

This is a proof of a chapter I wrote for Jungian Analysis in a World on Fire (Routledge 2024). It focuses on death anxiety, signs of widespread death anxiety in the US collective during the COVID pandemic, and some ethical implications that therapists might want to keep in mind when death anxiety running high in the collective.

This is the proof of a book chapter, which links key ideas on death anxiety from both psychoanalytic and philosophical traditions, as a way of interpreting psychological states and behaviors prevalent during the climax of the COVID-19 pandemic in the

A paper of mine on a widespread yet under appreciated clinical phenomenon, which the philosophers called “ressentiment.” Though I don’t speak of it here, I also consider ressentiment the primary moving force in our current political life in the US. It spreads like a contagion.

Magic is an intentional engagement with the Jungian concept of synchronicity. Psychologically, it needs a mythological worldview; an openness to deeper reality.
