General Info

Douglas Tompkins is a recognized Jungian analyst practicing in midtown Manhattan New York City location and known for stressing a positive relationship with the therapist as an important healing factor in Jungian analysis. ***Douglas Tompkins***, M.Div, L.P., NCPsyA has been trained as a Jungian analyst in Zurich and New York. He is a graduate of the C.G. Jung Institute of New York. Douglas is a licensed psychoanalyst in New York State, and is also registered as psychoanalyst with the National Association for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis (NAAP). He is a member analyst of the Jungian Psychoanalytic Association (JPA) in New York and also a member analyst of the International Association for Analytical Psychology (IAAP). ***Jungian analysis*** is a form of psychotherapy that addresses in depth a variety of personal and professional problems, identifying the potential in major complexes for more creative and efficient work, as well as new opportunities for healthy relationships.Each time we find ourselves stuck or suffering, in our relationships, our work, our creative or our spiritual life, the wisdom of the psyche can often surprise us with another point of view, kindling a light, offering us a different take, a fresh perspective, the hope of new energy and direction. What greatly distinguishes Jungian analysis are a comprehensive understanding of the healing nature of the therapeutic relationship, the analyst's personal training and engagement with the psyche, a deep knowledge of the fundamental structure and intent of the unconscious, and an ability to work with and interpret dreams and other creative expressions of psychic life. As this is stressed by Douglas Tompkins, one very important healing factor in the Jungian analysis is a positive relationship with the therapist. The purpose of an initial consultation with a Jungian analyst is to explore this possibility. One more important factor in healing is coming to terms with inner truths that wiser part of ourselves is already aware of when "consciousness has strayed too far from its foundations and run into an impasse." Our dreams often reveal the impasse, and point to the problem of our conscious attitude. However, many people do not remember their dreams. When Jungian therapy begins they do begin to remember them in most cases. If there is a dream before the initial consultation with the jungian analyst, it is appropriate to bring it to the session. Although dreams may be very helpful in an analyses, remember that lack of them need not prevent one from entering Jungian therapy. Reflection on the events and crises of day-to-day life is also an important component of the therapy which reveals where we have lost touch with the foundations of our own nature, and indicates what requires more of our attention. ***Analytic sessions*** usually take place once a week. But they can be more often if desired. They are typically conducted face-to-face with the Jungian analyst Douglas T
