Archetypal
Pattern Analyst Training Program A
Two-Year Interdisciplinary Program
"Matter
is psyche moving slowly enough to be seen." Teilhard de Chardin
C.G.
Jung emphasized the centrality of the Self and its archetypes in
shaping human experience. Their profound meaning and rich texture
draw us into a domain that, since the beginning of time, has been
the purview of mystics, saints, and "wise ones." This interior world
of the psyche and its wisdom is manifested through the patterns
it creates, and an awareness of these archetypal patterns can help
to enrich our personal and professional lives.
The
Assisi Institute's innovative Training Program is committed to advancing
the understanding and practice of this emerging field of archetypal
pattern analysis. Our trans-disciplinary curriculum is informed
by the work of C.G. Jung, M.L. von Franz, discoveries in the new
sciences, and the eternal truths of the world's wisdom traditions.
Each of these domains speaks of an overarching intelligent psyche
that guides the unfolding of life on all levels. These different
streams have contributed greatly to our appreciation and understanding
of what Jung termed the objective psyche, and their in-depth study
serves as the theoretical underpinning of our work.
Exploration
of these foundational concepts is complemented by extensive practice
in the methodology and application of archetypal pattern analysis.
Indeed, any meaningful assessments must draw on the capacity to
read patterns. This is true in psychotherapy and medicine, as well
as in organizational consulting, education, law, and other professional
fields. Without an awareness of the archetypal foundation of patterns,
our interventions are limited because they tend simply to address
the manifest, temporal expression of a given situation, and not
the forward-moving, meaning-making dimension of the archetype.
Our internationally recognized faculty from highly diverse fields
are specialists in reading the archetypal nature of patterns. Weekend
class sessions and telseminar case colloquia help foster
students' ability to discern the presence of archetypes through
study of mythology, psychotherapy, the cinema, dreams, and their
formation in the outer world.
Successful
completion of the program leads to certification as an Archetypal
Pattern Analyst. We are pleased that our graduates are continually
broadening the reach of this cutting-edge discipline in fields as
diverse as psychotherapy, medicine, government, education, and the
arts.
