Jungian marriage counseling

In her book “Jungian Marriage Counseling,” renowned psychologist and story therapist Razida Tkach explores the depths of a couple’s relationship through the lens of Jung’s analytical psychology. She offers a unique perspective on marriage counseling as a creative process that, through the use of metaphors and symbols, makes the difficult work of maintaining a relationship enjoyable and easy.

A happy marriage is not the merging of two people into a common identity, but the union of two distinct individuals. Turning to Jung’s concept of individuation, the author opens the way for readers to their own self and inner autonomy as the foundation for a deep and sincere relationship in a couple. She teaches them to see their partner not as a “soulmate,” but as a whole universe that deserves respect, support, and love.

Razida Tkach is a candidate of psychological sciences, founder of the Kyiv Jungian Institute and the School of Therapeutic Metaphor "Doctor Kazka", a practical psychologist, Jungian consultant, and fairy tale therapist.
