ABSTRACT
This chapter examines the different methods used in psychotherapy those days, around 1913/14, as Jung began his self-experiment. Jung knew and used most of these methods in his psychotherapeutic practice and some of these methods can be related to his experiment with his own fantasies. Jung’s comments on many theories indicate that he was familiar with different approaches and applied psychotherapeutics from different contemporaneous authors such as Freud, Adler, Janet, Bleuler, Bezzola, Prince, Forel, Staudenmaier and Silberer. The chapter concludes that Jung’s experiment was attuned with the contemporaneous psychology.
