Dr. Jung and His Patients

The author studied the total of Jung's 236 clinical cases, as described in The Collected Works and 1925 Seminars. She questions whether Jung was a relational psychoanalyst, as he describes himself in many of his theoretical writings about psychotherapy. She discovers that only eight examples include discussion of his relationship with the patient from a relational perspective. Dr. Cohen looks carefully at two of Jung's well-known cases, those of Kristine Mann and Wolfgang Pauli, and examines why Jung separates the personal and archetypal (objective) psyche in his analysis with them.
