Dr.
Robin Jaqua received her post-doctoral
training at the C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich, Switzerland. She has been in private
practice as a Jungian Analyst since 1984, and, in addition to her clinical work, she is
the Director of Training at the C.G. Jung Institute of the Pacific Northwest. In
connection with her teaching, she began a library for Jungian studies and Archetypal
Symbolism open to anyone with an interest in learning about the foundational concepts of
Jung’s Archetypal Psychology. In her teaching, Robin tries to expand
people’s consciousness of the importance of universal Archetypal principles, patterns
and purposes that govern the maturation of the human psyche. It is this
consciousness that facilitates the Individuation Process as conceptualized by Dr. Jung.Robin is an Honorary Board Member and supporter of ARAS - The Archives of Research on Archetypal Symbolism. ARAS works to collect, identify and make available information on universal symbols as they appear in all human cultures. Robin is especially interested in the power of symbols. "From the collective creative unconscious symbols emerge in dreams, active imagination and intuitive insights in ways that can energize and heal both body and psyche. If these gifts are utilized by the conscious mind, they can inspire and direct one’s spiritual growth toward an enlightened experience of wholeness."
