In this episode we discuss the work of Jungian analyst and Clinical Psychotherapist, Donald Kalsched, author of two powerful books---The Inner World of Trauma and Trauma and the Soul. In his work, Kalsched shows how "depth psychotherapy can open both analytic partners to "another world" of non-ordinary reality in which daimonic powers reside, both light and dark." Using Carl Jung's chart to explore Kalsched's approach, we focus on two periods of Jung's life where he experienced a "descent of the soul" and explore how these traumatic years shaped his work and life.
