enior Jungian therapist/analystMaxson McDowell PhD, LMSW, LP is Secretary and past President of the C. G. Jung Foundation in New York City.
Jung taught that dreams, myths and fairytales all use the same symbolic language. In lively and I show that fairytales anticipate therapy: if a tale begins with anxiety, depression or injured narcissism, it often ends by suggesting how healing might occur.
I have a special interest in treating injuries to self esteem (narcissism) in, for example, the sons or daughters of narcissistic mothers or fathers.
Therapy helps in relationships and in work. You and I together explore feelings and thoughts which get in your way.
Jungian analysis/therapy also supports creativity because it helps you relate to the unconscious.
For the past 24 years I've practiced in New York City with individuals and couples. I lead two on-going therapy groups. I also offer a private, on-going . One fifth of my clients are gay. Insurance may cover me as an out-of-network therapist.
