ABSTRACT

IN ANY attempt to discuss the technique of Analytical Psychology within a comparatively limited compass, certain important reservations must be made at the outset. In the first place, the technique of Analytical Psychology is so large a subject that it would not be possible to give a comprehensive account of it; what is aimed at is therefore a kind of general survey, with particular emphasis on the differences between Analytical Psychology and other schools of modern psychotherapy, especially that of Sigmund Freud. The idea of such a survey can only be to give an outline of the general principles of analytical treatment. This necessarily involves a certain amount of theoretical discussion. As, however, this theoretical discussion will be illustrated by material obtained from actual psychotherapeutic treatment, it may be hoped that the general line of treatment will emerge clearly.
