Abstract
Noting that there has been an increasing sharing of ideas between psychoana lysts and analytical psychologists within the past decade, the authors, all Jungian analysts, survey Jung's clinical theory in an effort to identify a reas where psychoanalytic clinicians might find Jung's concepts helpful. Th ey discuss Jung's approach to the dream, his understanding of psychotherapy as a dialectical procedure, and the theory of complexes and archetypes. Th ey also review how Jung's notions of the Self and individuation are used in contemporary Jungian practice. A dream of a man in his mid-30s is presente d to illustrate how these formulations can facilitate understanding of the patient and the analytic process.
