  • Making Sense of the “Wounded Healer” Phenomenon6
    Making Sense of the “Wounded Healer” Phenomenon6 Jordan Jamieson and Rhoda Scherman Auckland University of Technology, Auckland Abstract The conceptualization of the “wounded healer” is so historic that its roots can be traced back to the mythological figures of ancient Greece. The construct has also been used to illustrate the capacity of a certain inner “woundedness” within individuals that affects (if not enhances) their abilities to heal others, even while attempting to heal themselves. Yet, confusion remains as to what a “wounded healer” is, or how the woundedness serves to help others. A review of this subject matter was undertaken by the first author, under the supervision of the second author, due to a personal interest in the topic, as well as in anticipation of a career in counselling psychology. The paper was written with the intention to demystify the concept of “wounded healing” with further consideration of its influence on the therapist-client relationship. After describing the mythology, vocation and wounded healer paradigm, the paper considers the empirical research on the wounded healer phenomenon ending with some reflections on wounded healing in psychotherapy, and suggestions for further research.

  • The Wounded Healer
    University of Utah UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH JOURNAL THE WOUNDED HEALER: A DESCRIPTIVE ANALYSIS OF THE THEMATIC MATERIAL OF THE WOUNDED HEALER ARCHETYPE IN CONNECTION WITH THE THERAPEUTIC HEALING PROCESS Myranda Peterson (David Derezotes, PhD) Department of Social Work ABSTRACT The following thesis project is a critical analysis of Greek mythology, particularly the myth of Asklepios as The Wounded Healer, and why the best therapists often embody this archetypal energy in alchemical transformation. Mythology has been used to inform practice in the helping professions throughout history, and in our era still is used as a metaphor for how we think about helping and healing. Mythos is a philosophy of thought that combines not only reason, or that of logos, but the innate feelings behind them. Renowned psychoanalyst, Carl Jung, referred to myth as the expressions of the collective unconscious which are rooted in the psyche. The mythic approach is one that addresses the world in a narrative and indirect way. Subjective aspects, such as individual feelings and personal experiences, become pertinent to the mythology. There have been a number of various treatment interventions that have been used in clinical practice to help patients who have experienced trauma in their lives. Such therapeutic interventions may include art, dance, or music amongst others as a method to express oneself through creative means. Another intervention is that of literature which can be found in the practice of depth psychotherapy. The essence of catharthism is the purification or purgation of emotions through an expression of an art form. Depth psychotherapy combines the approaches of psychology and mythology to help a client that is psychologically suffering to uncover the meanings embedded in their unconscious minds to promote healing by becoming conscious of repressed traumas, thoughts, and feelings.

Life is random. Survival is conditional, and individuals inevitably sustain physical and psychological wounds along the way. Challenged by change, human beings seek meaning in the making and remaking of personal myths that acknowledge both failure and the heroic achievement to endure and flourish. Revealing the heroic character of their creators, this impulse to make and share stories also elevates prosaic, day-to-day struggles into inspirational tales that can transcend context and speak into others’ lives.

  • Person of the Issue: Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961)
    The International Journal of Indian Psychology | ISSN 2348-5396 Volume 2, Issue 3, Paper ID: B003TV2I32015 http://www.ijip.in | April to June 2015 Person of the Issue: Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) Ankit Patel1 26 July 1875 Born Kesswil, Thurgau, Switzerland 6 June 1961 (aged 85) Died Küsnacht, Zürich, Switzerland Alma mater University of Basel Psychiatry, psychology, psychotherapy, Field analytical psychology Spouse Emma Jung Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961) had a significant contribution to the psychoanalytical movement and is generally considered as the prototype of the dissident through the impact of his scission and the amplification of the movement he created in his turn (analytical psychology). Jung was the son of a Swiss reverend. He completed his medical studies, specialized in psychiatry and joined the staff of Burgholzli, the renowned psychiatric hospital in Zurich, run at that time by the famous Dr. Eugen Bleuler. In 1902-1903 he attended a traineeship in Paris with Pierre Janet, and then returned to Zurich and he was called senior physician at Burgholzli. It was in this context that Jung was introduced to Freud in 1907. Freud would be seduced by the prestige and personality of Jung and would soon see in him the spiritual son that could ensure the survival of psychoanalysis, so much so as Jung was not Jewish. Intense, professional and friendship bonds form between the two, with an ambivalence dominated by the inclination of Jung to underestimate himself in comparison with Freud, the fervor of his devotion to the "father" of psychoanalysis and oneiric hostility (emphasized by Freud in the common interpretation of dreams).
