Summary: "Archetypal psychology was initiated as a distinct movement of post-Jungian psychology by James Hillman over four decades ago. In his work Hillman moved away from Jung's notion of the ego, instead focusing on the psyche, and how patterns and ideas reside within the unconscious mind. In this book Jason Butler gathers disparate pieces of archetypal method and weaves them together with examples of dreams, fantasy images and clinical vignettes in order to depict the particular style taken up by archetypal psychotherapy. The book then considers how the work of James Hillman differentiates from Jungian analysis, and how archetypal psychology can be practically applied to psychotherapy to provide a unique contribution to therapeutic practice today.This book will be of interest to researchers and academics in the fields of Jungian and archetypal psychology looking for a new perspective, as well as practising psychotherapists"-- Provided by publisher.
