#69 – What is Shadow Therapy?

What is Shadow Therapy?

Shadow Therapy, sometimes called ‘Shadow Self’ or ‘Shadow Work’, is a concept by psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Carl Jung. 

Jung believed that we all have a Shadow Self, a part of us that we keep locked away or hidden, consciously or unconsciously, and for a variety of reasons too. 

Shadow Therapy is when a client is encouraged to look at this, understand why it is there, get clarity of where it comes from, and potentially transform it into something else. 

It is a fascinating form of therapy. 

I hope you enjoy this episode.

Best wishes,
