Jung Ontario is home to the Ontario Association of Jungian Analysts and the CG Jung Foundation of Ontario. Two related but separate entities, the Ontario Association of Jungian Analysts trains Jungian Analysts and provides resources for analysts and clients. Whereas, the CG Jung Foundation of Ontario presents educational programming to the public that explores the psychology and philosophy of CG Jung.
Analyst Training Program
The Ontario Association of Jungian Analysts (OAJA) is the sole Canadian training organization of Jungian Analysts.
The Analyst Training Program is recognized by the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario and the International Association of Analytical Psychology – the international accrediting and regulatory body for all Jungian societies and groups of analytical psychology practitioners, trainees, and affiliates.
A comprehensive program designed for working professionals, the Analyst Training Program welcomes Canadian and international individuals called to become Jungian Analysts.
Open to applicants from any professional background with a master's degree or equivalent, the hybrid program takes place primarily in person over nine long weekends between September and May with December and January dates held virtually.
Upon completion, graduates become members of the International Association for Analytical Psychology and are invited to become analyst members of OAJA. Completing our program and the CRPO registration exam permits analysts to practice as Registered Psychotherapists in Ontario.
International students may obtain a student visa through the Government of Canada from the Ministry of Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada.
Jungian analysis
Jungian analysis is a form of depth psychotherapy based on theories and concepts developed by Carl Gustav Jung. It explores the unconscious mind and the integration of various aspects of the self. Jungian analysis facilitates the ‘individuation’ process – Jung’s word to describe a journey of self-discovery, self-realization, and personal growth. This involves becoming one’s true and unique self, realizing one’s potential, and achieving a state of wholeness and balance in one’s personality.
Jungian analysis involves a deep exploration of the individual’s inner world, dreams, and personal narratives. This work aims to help the client better understand themselves, their motivations, and their life’s journey.
Analysis is holistic and integrative. It addresses a wide range of psychological and spiritual issues. Individuals interested in self-discovery and personal growth, and those who wish to understand the deeper aspects of their psyche find it invaluable.
Analyst membership
Accredited Jungian Analysts are welcome to join OAJA as their local society. For more information please contact our Membership Chair.
Public education exploring the psychology and philosophy of CG Jung
The CG Jung Foundation of Ontario is a charitable organization offering public courses, workshops, and seminars that investigate the psychology and philosophy of Carl Gustav Jung.
These events aim to ground attendees in Jungian philosophy so they may better understand themselves and the world they inhabit. Programming examines such topics as mythology, the interpretation of dreams and fairy tales, typology, somatic work, alchemy, femininity and masculinity, relationships, and the fundamental principles of Jungian psychology.
Originally known as the Analytical Psychology Society of Ontario, the organization was established in 1970 by a group of Ontarians inspired by the work of Jung. Some had met or known him personally. Later, in consultation with Jung’s heirs, the organization evolved to become the CG Jung Foundation of Ontario.
