    Company Name: CG Jung Institute of San Francisco

    Location: San Francisco, CA

    Decription:

    The Whitney Center for Psychotherapy of the CG Jung Institute of San Francisco has a dynamic and thriving training program offering 8-10 interns a two year 22 hour per week rigorous and full experience of psychodynamic open-ended Jungian informed depth psychotherapy.

    Our respected internship annually selects interns from ASW, AMFT and APCC eligible individuals for postmasters hours training toward licensure, as well as doctoral interns and senior psychiatry residents.

    The training includes: Psychotherapy with adults and couples (10-12 hrs/wk), individual supervision (2 hrs/wk), group case seminar (1.5 hrs/wk), didactic trainings (2-3 hrs/wk), group process (monthly) and a weekly staff meeting (.5 hr/wk). Supervision and training is provided by Jungian analysts. The 12 month training year begins in September. Interns receive an annual stipend of $6000.

    We are providing training and in-person services in our new Mission Street, San Francisco location.

    The Whitney Center for Psychotherapy of the CG Jung Institute of San Francisco has been serving the Bay area for over 50 years as a sliding scale community clinic. The diverse patient population is screened for those most likely to be able to utilize a depth psychotherapy model: individuals (and couples) who do not need crisis management, and can work through developmental issues, current life problems, and develop their potential through attention to their inner stirrings at an unhurried open-ended pace, usually once or twice weekly. Often these are students, artists, and others in the Bay area who cannot afford full fees and can be seen for $35-120 per session based on a sliding scale.

    The intern group is a motivated and creative group of individuals with diverse backgrounds and interests in Jungian studies, each of whom have demonstrated a capacity and skill for clinical work, ethical practice and self-reflection. Some prior clinical experience with severe mental disturbance and substance abuse is helpful. We value integration of personal and professional development, and interns are required to be in personal therapy or analysis during their training.

    Interns partake in the rich resources of our Institute learning community through their involvement in intramurals (alongside analysts and candidates in training), extended education programs, our library, and other Institute resources.

    We are continuing to review applications for the 25-27 training years that begins September 8, 2025.
