The C. G. Jung Institute of Seattle and the Washington Pastoral Counseling Association are co-sponsoring this national Jungian conference for depth-oriented professionals longing to foster the central presence of soul in profession and vocation.
Our major presenters are well-versed in this ancient Care of Souls tradition, and literate about Jung’s major interest in and contributions to the restoration of this venerable craft of depth healing.
Celebrated Jungian analyst Ann Belford Ulanov and renowned theologian Matthew Fox provide an elegant Care of Souls plenary leadership. Ulanov has detailed her sustained interest in Jungian inquiries into soul through decades of writing, teaching, and clinical inquiry. Fox specializes in one of Jung’s favorite care of souls mystics—Meister Eckhart. Find out more about the plenary sessions.

To anchor all this in the poetic and contemplative body-psyche, acclaimed international poet David Whyte will give a performance the evening of February 23.
